LoL. Thank you for appreciating.
Yes, i suppose we could be fitted in a desert forum but there is a strange twist to our climate. We have the Monsoons, when it never rains but it pours. 100% humidity levels are reached in the rainy season. July and August are wet. I cannot call any Himalayan plant as native Pakistani either. China, India, Nepal, Sikkim, Tibet, etc the Himalayas belongs to them also. So naming them Pakistani is a bit dishonest. The bio diversity belongs to humanity not to one single race or creed. As to what happened to the wild Cosmos, Daisy, etc i think we need to take a peek into colonial history and what were the gardeners and botanists of that period up to. Their attempts at hybridisation must be a part of botanical history. Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew should have it somewhere in their archives.
Regards.
