I am not quite sure whether these are flowers or buds but they were seen at a number of places in Upper Dibang Valley, Arunachal Pradesh. Some were growing at amidst the profusion of vegetation at shoulder height, and some I found growing just off the ground at Mayodia Pass, altitude 2655m.

 

I request identification please?

May it be a Polygonum, P. capitatum (the knotweed) ?

It is identified as Persicaria strigosa.

 

Incidentally, I found the Pink Knotweed to be very common in Upper Dibang Valley in Arunachal Pradesh. All along the road and even on stone culverts this weed was growing profusely.

I have doubts of this being Persicaria strigosa as per POWO, Rbgsyd

I think this is Persicaria chinensis (L.) H. Gross, as per images and details herein.
