Human: Homeland: Himalaya. Description: A herbaceous perennial up to 2 meters tall with a strong, bare, 4 cm wide stem that is hollow and moist. The leaflets are lance-shaped, pointed, and arranged in pairs opposite each other, spirally around the stem in whorls of three. They measure 5-18 cm long by 3-7 cm wide and have thorns on the edges. The flowers are red or pink, clustered in large racemes, producing a strong fragrance that attracts bees. They are 2-4 cm long, with two side sepals fused into a cup-like structure, three free sepals, and five petals. The fruit is a capsule, 3-5 cm long, which explodes when ripe, releasing the seeds. The plant blooms from July to October, and its seeds mature from July to November. Propagation and spread: This perennial plant reproduces by seed. Seeds are dispersed explosively from the fruit, and then carried away by water or wind, possibly also by animals. Habitat: Streamsides, roadside ditches, shaded meadows, wet forests, floodplains.
