The succulent plant is a Rhodiola but I am not familiar enough with the genus in Ladakh to

be certain from foliage alone - especially a single, non-close-up shot.

IF an Indian botanist had collected a pressed specimen of this - it has no flowers or fruit and

had sent to a major herbarium in the UK such as Kew, the specimen would have been discarded

as "sterile".

It may be that in the future as my familiarity with the genus in Ladakh improves, I will be

in a position to name the plant but at present cannot justify devoting any time to attempting to

identify it.

Whilst I make the point of requesting that images of foliage are included as well as those of

a plant's flowers or fruit, leaves alone, especially not in close-up are often of limited value - though

it may be that this species is abundant on the pass mentioned in Nubra. 

It is possible that it may prove to be the species suggested but as I am not certain about this species even when

in flower or fruit, would not wish to speculate from leaves alone.

Will let you know when I am clearer.

If by chance this group has a Rhodiola expert who knows with confidence what this is, please speak up - I

would be delighted to send them images of Rhodiolas from the region I am presently unsure about for their

thoughts.

Best Wishes,
