Garg" <[email protected]> I agree that without fruits (typically nutlets) some Boraginaceae can be difficult. My first thoughts are an *Eritrichium* rather than Myosotis asiatica (syn. Myosotis alpestris subsp. asiatica) which is the only Myosotis recorded from Ladakh. I seem to detect green, immature fruits in two of the images, showing bristles. If so, this means will be an *Eritrichium* - of which 6 are recorded for Ladakh: *E.canum*, *E.fruticulosum*, *E.hemisphaericum*, *E.patens*, *E.thymifolium* and *E.villosum*; it is not *E.villosum* (syn. E.nanum subsp. villosum) or *E.hemisphaericum*. *Eritrichium*, according to 'Flowers of the Himalaya' have ovoid nutlets, 3-angled with winged margins, with or without hooked bristles. Will need to check out the others. I must locate my copy of Boraginaceae of Pakistan and see if this makes things clearer.
