Rosaceae Week: Potentilla gerardiana_RKC03_04102011<\/a>:
\nLoc.: On way to Churdhar, Himachal Pradesh<\/span> (ca 1500m) Date: 10th August, 2010.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

I think we need to investigate it further. To me it looks as if basal leaves belong to Acomastylis elata<\/i> (Geum elatum; Sieversia elata<\/i>). Surely they don’t belong to P. gerardiana<\/i>., although upper leaves are surely of
\nPotentilla<\/i>. I wish you could find lower leaves of the plant to confirm identification<\/p>\n

\n

Unfortunately, I don’t have other photographs showing basal leaves!<\/p>\n

\n

… from Himachal Pradesh has also identified this plant to be as Acomastylis elata<\/i><\/b> (=Geum elatum<\/i>).<\/p>\n

Some more photographs of basal leaves???<\/p>\n

\n

May be Geum elatum<\/i><\/p>\n

\n
You may be right, Looking at so many specimens from VOF, I have a feeling that we may be having both varieties in our uploads.<\/div>\n
It appears that my upload from Kashmir and … from Valley of Flowers with compact basal leaflets with no smaller ones inbetween, low habit and stem with single flower may be Acomastylis elata<\/b><\/i> var. humilis<\/b><\/i> (Geum elatum <\/i>var. humilis<\/i>).<\/span><\/div>\n
efi thread<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
The above plant (if leaves support it)) and others with taller habit, basal leaves with interspersed smaller leaflets, taller branches with more than one flower on each stem may be the typical Acomastylis <\/b>elata<\/i> var. elata<\/b><\/i>.
\n<\/span>Perhaps some more critical study is needed.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Cropped High res pics… May be of some help<\/p>\n

Another first for eFI.<\/div>\n
I first got to know this avens in Kashmir during my Kashmir Botanical Expedition of 1983. The plant is typically yellow-flowered in the NW Himalaya though my team saw a scarlet- flowered from near Nichinai.<\/span><\/div>\n
Flowers of Himalaya says shrubberies & open slopes <\/span>@ 2700-4300m from Pakistan to SE Tibet.\u00a0They say yellow flowers rarely red.<\/span>\u00a0It is often the case that red variants are more often encountered the further SE one goes along the Himalaya for quite a number of species belonging to a range of genera and families.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
Stewart\u00a0recorded it from subalpine & alpine meadows<\/span>, common in Kashmir @ 3-4000m; not recorded from Ladakh.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
‘Plants of Gulmarg’ says common though doubt if grows at Gulmarg itself.<\/span><\/div>\n
I know it from Rohtang Pass, H.P.
\n<\/span><\/div>\n

It is also mentioned from ‘The Valley of Flowers’ so … may well know the plant from Uttarakhand.<\/div>\n

\n

Potentilla peduncularis<\/i> appears to be the closest match.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I thought Potentilla peduncularis<\/i> was an East Himalayan species.<\/span> To me this looks closer to Potentilla anserina<\/i>
\nhttp:\/\/www.plant-identification.co.uk\/skye\/rosaceae\/potentilla-anserina.htm<\/span><\/a>
\ncan’t be sure though.<\/p>\n

\n

Potentilla anserina<\/i> belongs to the group with alternate large and minute leaflets<\/span>, which I don’t see in this case. Plus leaflets are much different. I also don’t see any stolons.<\/p>\n

\n

In any case more than ten Potentilla<\/i> species have been uploaded by … alone. Many of which look interesting. Right now we can only make guesses. Would evaluate them critically later on, although I feel handicapped due to paucity of literature here in California.<\/p>\n

\n
