Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) Cultivated Shimla Underutilized vegetable crop need to be promoted. Appears close to images at POWO. Yes, it is Chenopodium quinoa. No doubts. It was growing at regional centre of National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources, Shimla. . Chenopodiaceae query: Your query seems to have solved my problem. In Delhi, chenopodium album is a winter weed mostly flowering between January to mid March, mostly as weed of cultivation, sometimes roadsides. We find a summer form that appears in April and continues in summer, much taller and more or less cut leaves, harder somewhat 4-angled branches. I have a feeling that this may be Chenopoium quinoa. I will upload it in this week. |
