Hi everybody !
As promised, some alpines from here - the Retezat (Mountains) National Park, Southern Carpathians, 2500 m max. altitude.
They are, in my opinion:
Campanula cervicaria
Hypericum maculatum
Phyteuma vagneri
Gentiana acaulis
Geum montanum
Homogyne alpina
Campanula alpina
Doronicum columnae
Gentiana punctata
Rhododendron myrtifolium
Greetings everybody,
Mike
PS. These are known ones. Some unknown / unsure ones will follow. ;)

PS. Where can we post - on this forum - and seek identification help photos of plants that are NOT alpines ?
Is this section very rigorous ?...

Now for the unknowns. As I said, the photos are from the Retezat National Park, Southern Carpathians, Romania, above 2000 m.

You can post them here, Mikey. I will merge all your Romanian plant pix in th a single topic.
Please put the names of the plants, where you know them, in the text of each post.
You can go back to a post to add the names by clicking on the "modify" button at each post.
Cheers, 8)

Thanx Malcolm, the families are OK, I guess, but I'd like the complete name, if possible.
