Thank you Chris. It is entirely possible! Now that you point this out, I think it is very likely that I looked at a plantago growing in the same thicket and mistook the leaves for those of the other plant. In my fatigue, I did not think straight and somehow convinced myself.
Even though the name Trigonotis rotundifolia is unresolved, FOI <http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Roundleaf%20Forget-Me-Not.html>, the Alpine Garden Society <http://encyclopaedia.alpinegardensociety.net/plants/Trigonotis/rotundifolia> and KEW <http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/getHomePageResults.do?homePageSearchText=Trigonotis+rotundifolia> have kept this name. I hope to visit the area soon and will search for the same plant to see if there are nutlets etc. Regards, Ashwini > On 5 Oct 2016, at 01:52, C CHADWELL <[email protected]> wrote: > > I am looking into this but wonder if by "lower leaves" you have mistaken the > large > leaves of what appear a Plantago to me?
