Wakhan corridor good vibes found...

I think the Wakhan pass is the connection with Hunza North Pakistan

DC welcome Raco! 
By hoping to select and repro this kind of old classics like X18 in near future with some Wakhan seeds bought by my farmer friend in situ. 2024/25 will see and all the best to gratify all Afghan and Pakistan great people and culture, al HamdoulilaH!

Hi @Roms. I was reading about trait changes across altitudinal/elevation gradients in Southern Andes, very similar to North Pakistan. At least in Phacelia secunda they talk about dwarfism, bigger size (radial?), longer leaf pubescence's, and more circular leaves (less foliar area... less water and heat loss).
In the second study they compare P. secunda with Dandelion. Different ways to cope with altitude.
I would love to see what happens if a dwarf phenotype and a "equatorial like" phenotype gets cultivated at high altitudes (over 3500 m asl.). Do both becomes dwarf? dwarf phenotype has more advantage than the equatorial type?
Cheers,
argylia
