Sba Kulu Phu Cher July 27th

5952. 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?

5953. Primula sinopurpurea (nivalis sp.). Taken at first to be P. macrophylla. But several plants were seen with two whorls of flowers. Perhaps P. sinopurpurea?

5954. Primula bellidifolia. Flowers almost over. This differs from No. 5888, which has farina under the leaves; it is not P. hyacinthina.

5955. Primula kongboensis sp. No flowers seen. Perhaps Primula petrocharis?

5956. 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.

5957. 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.
Saussurea aff. wardii 5963. Saussurea 5965.

SUMMARY:
Clear weather continues as seed collecting efforts focus on Primula species near Satsalor, with locals bringing unripe seed and successful finds of P. sherriffae and P. ludlowi on cliffs. The diarist notes the handover of previously ‘lost’ mail to Ludlow and plans to remain at Diwangiri until the 27th before proceeding to Rangiya.

Same now. The nights are clear, starry, the mornings hot and sunny with clouds gradually gathering till the evening. Nothing of interest seen. I had a man here to collect seeds of Primula filipes, which he did. But as always happens, he collected them all when green. He had a good bunch, but I threw them away. They always say they know all about taking dry ripe seed, yet I don't think any local has yet collected ripe seed for me. Tomorrow we see the last glimpse of the snows on leaving here. This is where the 'lost' mail was handed over to Ludlow. All I can hear so far is that a boy handed the mail in here alright - the local mandal's story is that it just lay here till Ludlow arrived when he said he had this bag, did L want it now or not.

23rd November. Satsalor. Fine, same as before. We searched the cliff pretty thoroughly for seed of P. Sherriffae and Ludlowi and got a good deal. P. filipes is just coming into flower and no seed was to be found. Only saw one bird just near Satsalor. A good deal of transport, all coming up from the mela.

at Diwangiri until 27th November for Rangiya.
