Stachyurus himalaicus is easily distinguished from the preceding species by the 
narrower, oblong or oblong-lanceolate, finely serrate leaves and by the smaller flowers 
with the style scarcely exceeding the petals. No. 2913 differs from the type in its 
broader less finely serrate leaves, and No. 10138* in its subpersistent leaves, the 
flowering branches holding still part of the leaves.

stalked or nearly sessile flowers and fruits.
