    Epilobium parviflorum from Gulmarg, Kashmir: Epilobium parviflorum Schreber, Spicil. Fl. Lips. 146, 155. 1771 syn: Epilobium vestitum Benth. ex Wall.; Epilobium parviflorum Schreber var. vestitum (Benth. ex Wall.) Clarke
Erect robust perennial herb similar to E. hirsutum in 4-lobed stigma but quite distinct in its sub-sessile (and not amplexicaule) leaves, broadest in the basal 1/3 part (and not upper half), smaller deeply notched pink narrower petals, all parts of plant with long villous hairs, densely so on lines below the leaf.
Photographed from Gulmarg Kashmir in July, 2011    Some fotos for you and specially for …, from my garden.
…, now you know why I am interested in seeds and seedpods. They look so beautiful and every plant has a differnt method of spreading seeds. In fact Epilobium parviflorum is a weed and grows everywhere all the summer. After making fotos I throw away the seeds and still there are more than enough plants in my garden. . SK 3017 05 October 2021: 8 very high res. images.
Location:Jumla, West Nepal Altitude: 2153m. Date: 17 August 2021 Habit : Wild Epilobium hirsutum L. ? I think Epilobium parviflorum Schreb. as per images and details herein and as per keys from Flora of Pakistan:
Looks correct.
