“*Looks like Himalayan Campion (Silene setisperma) * http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Himalayan%20Campion.html from the family of China Pinks. Cheers! - Tabish” “*I had initially also thought that it is a Campion as well, but the description does not match completely. I do not think the flowers are star shaped. Also the petals that are emerging seem to be fringed at the edges.* Possibly it is of the same family?” from Nirupa ji. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Nirupa Subramanyan <[email protected]> Date: 29 September 2010 17:54 Subject: [efloraofindia:48824] Id300910ns01 To: [email protected] Hello all, This is one more from the same trip. again, found around 12000ftasl. in my misguided effort to get an artistic looking photograph, I missed out on capturing the leaves and other parts.
