Sir

I am sorry to say that these images belong to Gaultheria fragrantissima Wall. (Ericaceae), not Pieris formosa (Wall.) D. Don

Pieris formosa has lanceolate to linear-lanceolate leaves, while G. fragrantissima has ovate-elliptic lamina; Corolla always longer to G. fragrantissima; stamens also distinct in both cases

regards

Dear Dr. Panda,

Thank you for correction! Actually it so difficult as many plants and flowers resemble!
