Brassicacae Week: Sisymbrium officinale from Kashmir: The initial wrong identificatin of this plant rather proved good, as it helped me to locate an interesting plant from here in California. When I visited Kashmir this time in May after a gap of more than 30 years, I noticed a weed very common along the roadsides in Harwan, the area of my Ph.D. study, and a few other places in Kashmir, perhaps I had not seen previously. The plant was very distinct in its short appressed fruits and small yellow flowers, and nearly horizontal branches. I thought it to be Hirschfeldia incana, an American similar looking species. It was only when ... suggested that we finally identified it as Sisymbrium officinale which differs from former in smaller flowers, different leaves and fruits different in structure.  
Sisymbrium officinale (Linn.) scop., Fl. Carn. 2: 26. 1772.
Syn: Erysimum officinale Linn.
