Identifying Indian Flowers from a Photo Album

A hobby photographer from India shared an online album of flower photos and requested botanical names.

Expertise Limitation

The expert's focus is wildflowers, primarily North American. Indian flora is outside this specialty.

Preliminary Observations

"Another lonely flower" resembles Gaillardia (Blanket Flower).
The last photo appears to be an Asclepiad (milkweed family).

Suggestions

Consult regional Indian botanical resources, university extensions, or local horticultural societies. Online databases like Flowers of India or Indian Flora on Facebook may help. The photographer has already identified many correctly.
