Thank you.
Pholidota imbricata Hook. ??

I need to see the whole plant.
This could be Pholidota pallida or Pholidota imbricata.
Check lateral sepals. If they are fused to each other on on margin at the base then pallida and if free then imbricate. 

Could you check as suggested by ...? 

Sorry ... Flowers are already died now need to wait for the next year.

HOPE ID IS CORRECT. 

Need to check if the lateral sepals are fused under the flower. If fused then pallida, if not fused then imbricata.
