can it be Akelei (germanname) (Aquilegia)? ----- Original Message ----- From: Gurcharan Singh To: Alok & Isabelle Cc: indiantreepix@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, February 11, 2011 11:21 AM Subject: Re: [efloraofindia:62535] ID request from a newbie..
Looking at leaves it appears Corydalis (flower head reminds Trifolium). If flowers and leaves belong to the same plant, the closest match seems to be Corydalis cashmeriana (though inflorescence is more dense). -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
