Please identify this Euphorbia species found growing wild in Delhi. It looks like E.hirta but is much taller, growing almost to a height of 2 feet and has cyathium bracts that are white in young unpollinated flower, turning  pink after pollination. Looks as if the male flowers mature first (dehised anthers seen in the young cyathium) unlike in E.hirta where the female flowers appear to mature first.
Regards,
Chitralekha
