    You may be showing two different species. Enlarge the views of the individual flowers etc. and compare.

    I did and still I see similar flowers. Only in photo 3 the branch is younger.

    It is indeed! From the leaves, it should be Valeriana edulis

    Thank you all! I could not ever imagine! It seemed too slender for valeriana.
