Unidentified Sp. A small herb, Height around 10″. Seen only at two locations at the same altitude.
Location Near MG Top (On the way to Panjtarni) Altitude: Around 14000′ Date: Aug 12, 2013 Should be some Sedum species (Crassulaceae). Sedum species in efi so far Appears close to Rhodiola fastigiata (Hook. f. & Thomson) S.H. Fu as per images herein. I agree that this is close to Rhodiola fastigiata but Rhodiola is a difficult genus identification-wise. I am still uncertain about distinguishing between a number of species from Ladakh & the NW Himalaya. So cannot confirm at this stage.
Stewart, who knew this plant as Sedum quadrifidum (with a var. fastigiatum) with records from Amarnath being very common at high altitudes in Kashmir @ 3600 to over 5000m. .
Please check Rhodiola fastigiata (Hook.fil. & Thomson) S.H.Fu ! Yes, appears close to images at . FLOWERS FROM THE TOLOLING BATTLEFIELD (DRASS LOC) OF KARGIL WAR (14000-15,000 FT) 6: 1 image.
From Vikram Hit Singh ji as per FLOWERS FROM THE TOLOLING BATTLEFIELD (DRASS LOC) OF KARGIL WAR (14000-15,000 FT) Rhodiola ! I think close to images at .
Rhodiola fastigiata- Amarnath Yatra: 6 images.
This herb was seen alongside the trek on the slopes at an elevation of around 12,500 ft. while trekking from Seshnag Camp (12,000 ft.) to Mahaguna (Ganesh) Top (14,800 ft.) on 8.7.26. Addition images were captured alongside the trek on the slopes at an elevation of around 12,500 ft. while trekking from Seshnag Camp (12,000 ft.) to Mahaguna (Ganesh) Top (14,800 ft.) on 8.7.26. More closer to Rhodiola quadrifida (Pall.) Fisch. & C.A.Mey. ?? I do not think so.
I have gone by post from Suresh ji at Rhodiola species from Paddar valley J&K SRANA 03
