Dear Sir and All,
I hope even this plant is Rubus niveus var. pauciflorus
this was clicked at
Location: Village Pali, (Yamuna valley), Uttarkashi Dist, Uttarakhand
Date:      June 18, 2008

This is what I had mention in my last post as in Uttarakhand or at least in Uttarkashi Dist,
this plant is known as "Kali Hisar" locally and fruits are edible when they fully ripe - turning black.
Flowers are pinkish, unfortunately I do not pic of flowers to share with you all.

Thanks and Regards
Ninad

Yes Ninad ji

This plant is very distinct in pinnate rose-like leaves and was earlier known as R. lasiocarpus.
