 Please also consider that leaves of Hyptis suaveolens are not white

 cm broad as per eFlora of Pakistan, here they are up to 20 cm long and
 almost as broad. Can we accomodate that under simple variation. I am

 “sirji, your photo is of full grown plant, whereas the posted photo is

 “I* too think that this is Hyptis suaveolens* of Lamiaceae family. The
 small plants always have larger leaves than that of larger/ mature plants.
 Any way if we get the flower pictures, it would be easy to confirm the
 same.

 This herbaceous plant up to 90 cm tall, while still in vegetative

 Martynia and Parthenium. It has long petioled ovate-cordate thick rugose
 leaves, reaching 20 cm in width, almost as long and petiole nearly as long

 leaves is whitish. It was still in vegetative condition, growing near

 “Latex was surely milky white” from Balkar ji.

 Certainly not  Ichnocarpus frutescens as  Ichnocarpus frutescens is in
 flowering stage in our area. Hemidesmus indicus isalso doubtfull as
 Hemidesmus indicus is there in my college and looks different from this,
 however may be a variety id H indicus. I am trying to catch this in

 This is 100 percent not Hemidesmus indica. I had plenty around my

Sir,

These photographs are of same plant and I think it may be Conyza
bonariensis as suggested by you.

 I doubt they are two photographs of the same plant. The first one from
 leaves looks like Vernonia cinerea (but should have pink heads), the secomd
 may well be Conyza bonariensis.  You may please recheck

 Endemic to the island of Madagascar, Traveler's Palm is one of the most
 interesting tree-like plants. Traveler's palm is not a true palm. In part
 it looks like banana plant and in part a palm tree. Its long leaf stalks
 and deep green leaves resemble those of the banana and extend out
 symmetrically from the trunk like a giant Chinese fan. The leaves are up to
 10 ft long and 12-20 inches wide. Young traveler's palms have no visible
 trunk which, is underground. In adult plants, the trunk emerges above the
 ground, raising the symmetrical leaf-fan to heights ranging from 30-60 ft.
 The green palmlike trunk grows up to 1 ft in diameter and displays
 distinctive trunk leaf scar rings. The small white flowers, in a foot long
 inflorescence, are held in bracts. In these bracts and leaf folds,
 rainwater is collected. It is this rainwater collecting property of this
 tree, which can be consumed by thirsty travelers, what gives it the name
 traveler's palm. The fruits are brown while the seeds are blue.
