This was again shot from way to Hemkunt Sahib in Uttrakhand..
Please help to give id of this Rheum..
Is this again R. australe ?? Perhaps yes, thanks for sharing Again very good closeups. and Thanks for sharing clear pictures of other parts esp. the leaves. As the perianth is not dark purple, but pale yellowish, it should be Rheum webbianum as per keys and discussions at Rheum webbianum from Pothibasa, Uttarakhand-GS08012022-2 Going by the keys in Flora of Pakistan, it can not be Rheum webbianum Royle, being stemless.
