Requesting to please validate ID of this plant captured near Dharamshala, HP in October 2014. I hope this is Persicaria capitata (based on FoI pics). Yes ..., rightly identified.. Old picture of flower for Id pl. Location - Chakrata,Uttarakhand. Date- 04.10.2009 Habitat -Wild Persicaria capitata (Polygonaceae).
Location: Pilot Baba Ashram, Bhaktapur , Nepal Altitude: 5000 ft. Date: 5 July 2016 Persicaria capitata (Buch.-Ham. ex D. Don) H. Gross (accepted name) Nepali Names: रत्नाउलो Ratnaaulo This is a distinctive plant. Recorded between Godawari and Phulchoki @ 2300-2800m @ Sheopuri @ 2440-2740m in 'Flora of Kathmandu Valley'. Stewart only occasionally came across it @ 1200-1800m in Hazara and Kashmir, commenting it was common to the east. Collet found it to be very common on rocks & walls at Shimla; there is a line drawing of it in Flora Simlensis. Flowers of Himalaya say cultivated areas, banks & rocks; common Pakistan to SW China @ 600-2400m. 'Enumeration of Flowering Plants of Nepal' give 2400m as it upper limit, so rather odd that 'Flora of Kathmandu' should record it at and indeed above its previous known altitudinal limits. Cultivated in the UK. I last saw it growing on a bank en route to Dalhousie from Chamba side.

Pink Knotweed or Japanese Knotweed is doing well now with fresh bright pink heads poking out of stone wall crevices around my home. It has some medicinal value and is known to be used in China for treating urinary tract infections. The leaves have a 'v' mark on their upper surface. Pink Knotweed (Persicaria capitata) 1800m Mcleodganj, Dharamshala, HP 07 October 14 Yes, beautiful bloom of this widespread herb. I think yes, beautiful photographs These weeds are flowering too and I am putting a couple of pictures here for record. 2 images. Above Mcleodganj, Dharamshala, HP 1800m 27 March 2016 wonderful faces of these tiny flowers ... you know i am greedy...now i want to see the v mark on the leaves... while you are at it.. if you have the heart to uproot one of these weedy things could you show the whole plant and its roots... i want to know if it has root knots or nodules... i.e. does it fix nitrogen. its not the sole property of legumes you know. So nice to see the close ups. Thank you .... , I will pull out one and photograph the features you asked for. The leaves with ‘V’, I have shared before too, but I will do so again. Here are the leaves again as promised. I pulled out the plant rather clumsily and am not sure if I got the whole root. Could you see from these what you were hoping? While looking at the plant closely I found disc like growths on leaf axils. Including those pictures too. 7 images. Through your lens, we are seeing many aspects not seen in earlier postings. Thanks, ..., for enriching efloraofindia through your eyes. Thank you .... It’s thanks to ... that I had another look at the plant and found something I didn’t know before. Thanks ... no i dont see any of the nodules i thought might be there and those little "stipules"? may be ... can tell us Idling about in the cold chilly morning today I found comfort in the warm autumn/winter colours of these plants. I thought I will share these with you. All photos were taken on my phone. As always, please correct me if I have misidentified any of these. Mcleodganj, Dharamshala, HP 16 December 2014 3.
