Dear Tanay ji, after tasting only we come to know whether edible or inedible
eventhough there are some risk. Tomatoes was once considered poisonos in
Europe and they were growing it just for show purpose.

Dear Gurcharan ji,
I am having doubts about this being Phytolacca acinosa, mainly
because the flower-spikes look too densely-flowered for Phytolacca
acinosa. See the illustration and image here:
http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=51021flora_id=2
After further searches the choice seems to be between R. beggeriana and R.
corymbifera (syn: R. canina var. crymbifera; R. dumentorum; R. jacquemontii)
distinct from type R. canina in dull leaves (shining in R. canina)). Both
are reported from Kashmir, R. corymbifera from Pahalgam. Could any

I hope you missed my mail to Nalini ji in which I had discussed Himalayan
plant and the European plant uploaded by Nalini. Our plant has much narrower
leaves, rarely broader than 10 cm and inflorescence much dense, whereas
specimens of P. acinosa are much broader often as broad as 30 cm

Further to above I have been able to lay hands on identification key given
by Walters in 1908 in his monograph for Asian species:
Carpels,7-(9- 10) ,free to their base; 3-5ft tall ;Ea Asian spp.
Stamens 10-16; perianth uniformly light green……P. latbenia

Thanks Sir Ji for the detailed explanation of the taxonomic maze.

Although the pictures are not too clear, it should be Bauhinia
purpurea. It varies from a deep purple to a complete white. Narrow
petals and deeply ribbed buds are indicators.

Thanks for a nice set of blackberries. They are really mouth watering, but
beware of Tanay, He may not fly down to Germany seeing these berries.
On a serious note most specimens of European blackberry (R. fruticosus) are
