Dear Tabish, I agree with u . In fact my latest post agrees well with FOI. But the initial post of this thread with light pink flowers were of visibly smaller in size as compared to my latest posts. Also the leaves were much more hirsute, bit thicker, stems and calyx more hairy as compared to latest post. Probably these might just be variation due to altitude variation etc. and all of these could be Campanula colorata (Campanula pallida var. pallida) as mentioned by u and Dr Gurcharan Singh ji.
Thanks to yourself, Dr Gurcharan Singh ji, Dr Pankaj Kumar ji for this useful discussion. Its a learning experience for people like us. regards Prashant On Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 10:03 AM, Tabish <tabi...@gmail.com> wrote: > Prashant, > This does look like Camapnula colorata (Campanula pallida var. > pallida) to me, unless you mention a disagreeable size.
