Delphinium sp: I hope Delphinium pyramidale .
I think yes as per images at Delphinium pyramidale and as per GBIF specimen from Nepal & POWO specimens- one and two. Delphinium brunonianum ??—- en-route Dhel Pass – GHNP – PKA51 : 7 posts by 6 authors. Attachments (8) Seen this beautiful herb en-route Dhel Pass at an altitude of approx. 3600m. Not able to confirm the species. According to Flora of Kullu District by Dhaliwal and Sharma, it may be Delphinium cashmeriana. I fear we have a mixture of D. brunonianum and D. cashmerianum here. Number 3 with glandular hairs and 7 with deeply divided closely deeply crenate leaves suggest D. brunonianum. 4, 5, 6 look like D. cashmerianum. Perhaps population based distinction of photographs by … may help. To me appears more closer to images and details at Delphinium pyramidale Royle
. ID request -27102010-PKA1: Came across this herb very close to Hampta pass (Altitude approx 13750 ft). These are the only photographs available. Date /Time: 28-09-2010 / 11:00AM Location: On the way to Hampta pass (approx 13850 ft), Manali region Habitat: Wild Plant habit: Herb Delphinium brunonianum I assume. Delphinium brunonianum indeed I would go with D. cashmerianum. D. brunonianum has much paler flowers. I thought I can see some glandular hairs!! and purple blue veins on flowers too. But I may be wrong.. To me appears more closer to images and details at Delphinium pyramidale Royle
