Title: Codonopsis
Post by: PaulM on July 31, 2012, 08:46:31 AM

I got seeds of this species from the Swedish Garden Society ( Sällskapet Trädgårdsamatörerna ) STA, in their 09/10 seed exchange as Codonopsis meleagris, but I wonder if that can really be right ? It's very tall ( about 120cm ). I have a series of pictures here and hope that someone who is familiar with the genus  can help me.

It looks very much like my Codonopsis clematidea which is nearly that high this year (the rain) although normally a little shorter.

This might be of help Paul:

I appreciate the help Brian. I think it is C. clematidea too.
