Impatiens meeboldii Hook. f., Bull. Misc. Inform. Kew 8: 291 1910. ; Common name: Meebold's Balsam
Me too eager for the ID. My upload at ... is already waiting for this Impatiens at FOI since for 6 years ... This is Impatiens devendrae Pusalkar Not Impatiens devendrae ... If you look at I. devendrae flowers, the lower sepal (the one ending in a spur) is broad, cylindric, somewhat inflated. http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Devendra%27s%20Balsam.html On the other hand, in the flowers here, the lower sepal is almost conical. A reply from another thread: "Several months ago I found information that white-flowered form of I. thomsonii was found in western Himalaya. I can't found source now, but I finally compared pictures of typical I. thomsonii and our mystery white flowered Impatiens. Shape of lower sepal and spur is very similar, lateral petals too, so only big difference is colour pattern. What do you think?" I think this one is Impatiens meeboldii http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=250071529 http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Meebold's%20Balsam.html Flora of Uttarakhand- Impatiens glandulifera 4 ?: Wild Herb captured on 13/8/10 during the trek from Ghangaria (around 11,000 ft.) to Hemkunt Sahib (around 14000 ft.). I think Impatiens glandulifera var. candida (syn: I. roylei var. candida) I think it's same as in ... post (yet to be identified): efi thread Is it Impatiens devendrae as per another thread by ... ?: Thanks for appreciation - I tryed to browse all Impatiens posts. For me it is not I. glandulifera - capsules are less or more linear, nor I. devendrae - lack of orange/reddish markings near the throat and different shape of lower sepal and spur, as far as I see it. I have no clue which species it is A reply from another thread: "Several months ago I found information that white-flowered form of I. thomsonii was found in western Himalaya. I can't found source now, but I finally compared pictures of typical I. thomsonii and our mystery white flowered Impatiens.

VoF Week: 19082012 BS 2 Impatiens sp-2 from Valley for id: Another Impatiens sp from Valley for id Any idea about the flower size (length from tip of spur to petal tip) A reply from another thread: "Several months ago I found information that white-flowered form of I. thomsonii was found in western Himalaya. I can't found source now, but I finally compared pictures of typical I. thomsonii and our mystery white flowered Impatiens. Shape of lower sepal and spur is very similar, lateral petals too, so only big difference is colour pattern. What do you think?" Keeping it as Impatiens meeboldii Hook. f. for the time being. Impatiens meeboldii seems to be a good match. Is the elevation around 2400 m. and flowering May- July ?
