Question
Our school campus in Indo-nepal boarder has these variety of tiny flowers. Please mention their scientific and common names. The plants grow near maize fields..
Answer
Dear sekhar_sir, good afternoon. Unfortunately, I am not an expert in the flora of Indo-Nepal. I can only recognize higher ranks (and not species). The first image, the plant with white ray flowers, looks like a species of Galinsoga (quickweed), a member of the composite family. The second image, the species with yellow ray flowers, is also a member of the composite family and is grouped in the tribe Lactuceae (with genera such as Hieracium, Taraxacum, and the like). The last one, with white or pink flowers with yellow centers looks like a woody member of the vervain family, but I cannot tell you for certain and what genus it belongs to. I apologize, but this is the best I can do from half way around the world. Best wishes.
