Here is another population from Pahalgam Kashmir, alt. 2800 m, which appears C. falconeri with very clear woolly heads of C. falconeri, but more stunted plants and somewhat clustered heads, 23-6-2011.

No, I do not agree. No nodding heads.
I think C. argyracanthum (POWO)- as per POWO specimen onetwo (based on my views at Cirsium argyracanthum from Himachal Pradesh-GS31122021-3)

Maybe a lot of threads (looking similar to your this post) also needs to be moved from our page at Cirsium wallichii as these look different from POWO specimens- onetwothree to C. argyracanthum (POWO)- specimen onetwo
It is sometimes difficult to judge the size of heads in close up images. A habit image gives a better perspective.
