Came across this small beautiful pink coloured flowers near Chatadu.
Date/Time: 29-09-2010 / 12:30PM Location: near Chatadu Village (Spiti region), 11200ft Habitat: Wild Plant Habit: Herb Nice pictures … I guess, it is Epilobium species of Onagraceae. Oenothera rosea please Epilobium laxum.
Yes … is right. Not Oenothera. Oenothera rosea no doubt
No …, not Oenothera Rather Epilobium.
I too feel this to be Epilobium sp.
I think Epilobium wallichianum also has distribution in this region..
Epilobium sp.
Perhaps Epilobium brevifolium
Seems more like Epilobium cilliatum…
I wonder this American plant which although widespread in Asia has ever been reported from India, even Flora of China does not mention it. In China the plant may ascend to altitudes of 2000 m, so it is equally doubtful whether it can ascend to around 3500 m in Western Himalayas.
The upper leaves of E. ciliatum are lanceolate and narrower. Here they are clearly ovate.
For me, as such, E. brevifolium of Fl. Simlensis (closely related to E. royleanum) is the closest match
VoF Week :: Epilobium royleanum at Valley of Flowers: 6 images. 2 AUG 12 These pictures are just so very beautiful – I am falling in love with them! 🙂 I think more closer to images and details at Epilobium brevifolium subsp. brevifolium rather than those at Epilobium royleanum Hausskn. This is also as per keys at Flora of China and FOC illustrations:

Will do the correction accordingly in flickr notes.

But I do not find any distribution in Nepal.
So it may be some other species. I think more closer to images and details at Epilobium brevifolium subsp. brevifolium rather than those at Epilobium royleanum Hausskn. Which one it is matching …?

Image of Thingam ji at Epilobium royleanum in FOI is more close to images and details in references at Epilobium brevifolium subsp. brevifolium rather than those at Epilobium royleanum Hausskn.
You are right. The broad leaves also agree with Epilobium brevifolium subsp. brevifolium. Corrections have been made:

Epilobium… ?? Epilobium brevifolium D. Don. ?? Appears to be Epilobium brevifolium subsp. brevifolium as per images and details herein and as per comparative images at Epilobium. Details of stigma and stem are not clear. This one looks slightly different to me since the number of leaves are too densely close and clustered, but not sure ! After checking all the four species listed in your area as per SK 3171 25 November 2021, I think it may be Epilobium wallichianum as per GBIF specimens from Nepal- one, two OK … Only doubt which remains is the ‘Stems (5-)10-25(-60) cm tall, simple or sometimes branched, glabrous except for 2(or 4) raised strigillose lines decurrent from margins of petioles, …’ as mentioned in the Flora of China. Plant size looks ok. It was around 25 cm. Taking it as Epilobium brevifolium subsp. brevifolium    Help me to identify this Epilobium sp.: 3 images.
Location: Kupwara jammu and Kashmir. I hope E. hirsutum I think it is close to Epilobium parviflorum Schreb. as per comparative images at Epilobium.
Looks different from images at Epilobium hirsutum L.
This looks somewhat different from images of … at Epilobium parviflorum from Gulmarg, Kashmir What are the other species reported from your area? Photograph showing leaf bases, stigmas should help. Closest match is E. parviflorum only. Hairiness of the stem is much different from images of Epilobium parviflorum at Epilobium parviflorum from Gulmarg, Kashmir .
ID JK 05: 1 image
Please identify this herb from Gulmarg in Kashmir. 14/9/24. Epilobium. Maybe . References: |
