Chubumbu La field notes on Primula and Rhododendron
Chubumbu La field notes on Primula and Rhododendron
LSH/1/1/6/1/68 · Part · 1937-06-05
Part of The Ludlow & Sherriff Collection

SUMMARY:
Notes on several Primula species and a Rhododendron near Chubumbu La, including observations on clonal rooting, flower color, and differences between high- and low-altitude forms. Distribution remarks mention areas south of the Himalayan/Main Range and comparisons to specimens from Mijitun, with a reference to Ludlow (1936) on Primula Elizabethae.

looks as if it might be a natural hybrid with 3983. Usually it occurred in 6-8 plants together. These were rooted together - the roots joined. So it seems to reproduce its colour, if not from seed, at any rate by root reproduction.

3985 Prim. Elizabethae. Rightly described by Ludlow in 1936 as "a truly magnificent primula." In the field notes I mention how red all flower buds are, & also that some flowers keep this distinct tinge. In this case again (as in 3984) these plants rooted together all have the red tinged flowers. Very common, but in a limited area.

3986 Prim. prenantha. I have noticed before how these high altitude P. prenantha differ from the low ones, viz. from 3848. In the same way 2396 of 1936 did not appear to me at all like the specimens taken from Mijitun, No . The high altitude ones have larger leaves, larger flowers, & I do not think are ever Candelabra, having only one umbel of flowers. They are otherwise more robust.

  1. Primula Clutterbuckii. This seems the same as 3640 = 3756, but I am not sure if it is P. Clutterbuckii. It is common near the Chubumbu La.

  2. Primula kongboensis. Only seen on the South of the Himalayan Range.

  3. Primula Dickieana var. alba. White form. These had no purple or cream tinge, but the buds do appear to have a little purple in them.

  4. Primula barbatula. A smaller plant - leaf & flower to the type?

  5. Rhododendron aff. repens. This form only occurs South of the Main Range here. It has much smaller flowers, longer, narrower more pointed leaves, & is only 1 or 2-flowered.

SUMMARY:
Field notes from Sba Kulu Phu Cher listing Primula specimens with numbers and identification remarks, including flowering condition and comparisons among taxa. Mentions uncertainty between several Primula determinations and references a similar collection made in 1936 near the Kashong La. Additional entries include Saxifraga, Gentiana, and Saussurea taxa with specimen numbers.

  1. Primula dryadifolia. Collected because of the 2-flowered scapes which have the flowers clear of the leaves, which are very large. Is it a subspecies of P. dryadifolia?

  2. Primula sinopurpurea (nivalis sp.). Taken at first to be P. macrophylla. But several plants were seen with two whorls of flowers. Perhaps P. sinopurpurea?

  3. Primula bellidifolia. Flowers almost over. This differs from No. 5888, which has farina under the leaves; it is not P. hyacinthina.

  4. Primula kongboensis sp. No flowers seen. Perhaps Primula petrocharis?

  5. Primula muscoides v. roseotincta var. nov. The flowers were pale violet, the same as I collected in 1936 near the Kashong La under No. 2399. I have not seen the usual white form this year.

  6. Primula capitata subsp. crispata. Common, in full flower at its lower elevation.

Sax. wardii 5949. S. bergenioides 5950. S. perpusilla 5953. S. longistyla 5962.
S. kingdonii 5967. S. montanella 5968.
Gent. phyllocalyx 5972. G. leucantha sp. nov. 5951.

Kulu Pher Chu: Primula observations and march to Lamdo
Kulu Pher Chu: Primula observations and march to Lamdo

SUMMARY:
Field notes detail several Primula species around Kulu Pher Chu and plans with the Tsungpen to reach Lamdo over a high ridge en route to Tseladzong. A wet halt day included further plant observations on avalanche-swept slopes and concerns about mail and Shadu, followed by a cold, rain-soaked march to Lamdo (11 miles) with a guide who initially took the wrong spur.

Primula

P. rhodochroa No. 5890, about 6 more flowers. P. capitata (subsp. crispata?) 5975 is common close to camp on the steep hillside. P. micropetala? (P. hesperidium) 5888 is also fairly common higher up. Then we found a few P. bellidifolia 5966 with flowers just over. Also what I at first took to be P. macrophylla, but which I think maybe P. sinopurpurea 5964. We saw a few seed specimens with two whorls of flowers. (P. kongboensis) 5970 I think might be P. petrocharis, but I don't know. P. muscoides, the violet form was just in flower still, 5971: and a fine form of P. jonardunii (P. dryadifolia) 5952, with all scapes 2-flowered was seen. Perhaps this is P. dryadifolia. The scapes held the flowers clear of the leaves which were bigger than usual. Saxifrages abound, over from a good many. This was a hard day's climb, or don't think we will do very much tomorrow, but prepare for the next day, when Tsungpen and I intend to go to Lamdo via the top of the ridge, instead of along the valley bed. It will be a long climb first, to over 15000 ft, then a long tedious traverse, before the steep descent. But I think it should be worth it, a good finish up before reaching Tseladzong. I hope to finish this book of Field Notes, up to 6000, which will give me up to 920 specimens this year. Taylor will likely have 1500 or so.

28th July. Halt. Rained a good deal at night. Clouded all day, with light rain most of the day. Had a fairly slack day today, crossing the river and going up one of the side valleys opposite camp to 13000'. It was a very steep slope which is swept by avalanche every spring, and kept bare. A good deal of snow still near the bottom, and snow has kept several plants back. We saw for instance, several Prim. atrodentata still in flower. Nomocharis nana also common, in flower. All thoughts in camp are about the mail, and whether Shadu also will be at Tsela before us. I rather doubt whether either will be before us. We ourselves will be one day early. I rather dread tomorrow's trek, especially if wet, as seems likely. We climb over 2000 ft to start off with, then have a long traverse along the hillside, before a steep descent of 5000 ft to Lamdo. However camp will be waiting ready for us, which always is nice to have.

29th July. Lamdo. 11 miles. Yesterday was a disastrous day. It poured all day and up on the hill was very cold indeed, with a strong wind. We had a Lopa to 'show us the way'. He did not start off too well, by going up the hill the wrong spur. Then we got into thick
30th July. Halt.
