Thanks a lot Pankaj ji, I think you are right. In fact seemingly 5 perianth and stamens had confused me.
Well this plant gave me maximum trouble in photography (which both you and Giby ji noticed independently, and gave me useful tips). In fact I visited this plant at least four times as none of my three cameras (Sony alpha, canon 550D and Panasonic lumix) gave satisfactory results. White seems to get blurred and merge in foliage. These are the best I could manage. A truly learning experience. Thanks again for identification and useful tips. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
