Hydrangea anomala ABMAY01/04 : 3 posts by 3 authors. 6 images. I have been seeing this climber on trees on a couple of mountain trails. The flower cluster is aromatic and the sterile flowers light green. It looks like a wild hydrangea to me, Hydrangea anomala perhaps. Please advise.
Hydrangea anomala?

I would very much appreciate an identification
we saw this around the village of Makku, Uttarakhand at an altitude of about 6,500 feet first week of may 2018
Hydrangea species most likely Hydrangea aspera. Many thanks for sending me in the right direction. H. aspera has purplish or white infertile flowers, this particular one has yellowish so it probably is H. Heteromalla. is this a shrub or a climber??? –if a shrub, did you think of hydrangea heteromalla
I think it appears closer to illustration & images of Hydrangea anomala as per images and details herein and as per at
rather than Hydrangea aspera

Hydrangea heteromalla D. Don (no observation so far in efi site) appears close to Hydrangea anomala as per illustrations at

I guess it may be genus Hydrangea, though inflorescence appears different.. open flower may solve the doubts.
Not sure > Could not match according to listing at ACFPN. To me looks different from images at Hydrangea
It is looking like Hydrangea anomala. (I have confusion & I am not sure)
Thank you …, I shall try to check if I can go there again. It could be since it is recorded in Phulchoki according to the book.
Thanks a lot, … You appears to be right as per images and details at Hydrangea anomala D. Don as per comparative images at Hydrangea
Please Check Dicroa of Hydrangeaceae
Thanks, … I think it may be Hydrangea anomala D. Don
Yes … it is not Dichroa.
Okay. Thanks for letting me know.
A bit late to re-visit the location and unable to find flowering, however I could get some fruiting images Hope, this will validate the ID. Attachments (2)
A member of Araliaceae, not sure which genus.
It is already identified as Hydrangea anomala. Please check earlier mail.
Closest seems to be Hydrangea anomala D. Don as per FOC illustrations (although images shown here appears to be of dried fruits) for species found in Nepal below:
Thank you …!
