Checking at the description and photographs on the net I find there is lot of mix up between D. brunonianum, D. cashmerianum and D. vestitum. Even the plant depicted in Flowers of Himalayas as D. cashmerianum does seem to have leaves much different than found typically in D. cashmerianum
http://cubits.org/gardaflora/thread/view/49201/ http://www.abc.se/~m8449/pic/juli04.jpg http://www.abc.se/~m8449/pic/DE8.jpg Not the Photograph of Flowers of Himalayas but description seems to match this plant of D. cashmerianum (which says it resembles D. brunonianum but differs in not being glandular hairy in upper parts and smaller less inflated flowers mostly 2-3 cm) http://magnar.aspaker.no/seedlist%202008.htm Your plant in that respect seems to be correctly identified as D. cashmerianum in your another mail (although flowers are fairly large in your plant). As far as your above plant is concerned, yes the leaves seem to match D. brunonianum (and D. cashmerianum of Flowers of Himalaya) http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=45475&flora_id=110 http://magnar.aspaker.no/seedlist%202008.htm http://homepage.mac.com/delphinium2/04/04.html but the only concern is your plant seems to be much taller. D. brunonianum is supposed to be always shorter than 30 cm. Your D. viscosum does resemble the species in its smaller flowers and strongly rigidly hairy plants. It, however, as pointed out earleir is not typical specimen, which should have several flowers in a typical racemes. Your seems to have just two. Perhaps you may be able to locate more typical specimens in future. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
