Thanks Samir ji. To me, the stems in the pictures look like striated (with
longitudinal ridges), a feature also seen in C. juncea.
But let's wait for more comments.

Thanks Dinesh ji, for the FOI link. But I fear the picture in this link-
especially the std. petal- looks close to that of C. spectabilis. But, I
may be wrong...

Pl also check this link for C. juncea:
