Dear Friends
As I am going to Kashmir for ten days on Sept 1 I may not be able for some initial days due to nonavailability of internet there. As such I am beginning uploads of Rosaceae Fortnight two days earlier. I will complete remaining upon returning from Kashmir.
Agrimonia eupatoria Linnaeus subsp. asiatica (Juzepczuk) Skalický,
Feddes Repert. 79: 35. 1968.
Perennial herb with horizontal rhizome, glandular hairy; leaves uninterruptedly imparipinnate with 3-5 leaflets, margin crenate;
flowers 11-13 mm across in spike-like terminal racemes, yellow; fruit 8-10 mm across with spreading prickles, outer most prickles recurved.
European and American var. eupatoria is distinct in erect rootstock, being less hairy and less deeply grooved calyx
Another Himalayan species A. pilosa is distinct in smaller flowers (7-9 mm
