Piptanthus nepalensis (Hook.) D. Don
See P. laburnifolius, page 249. This species has been reintroduced from Nepal and is likely to become more widely available than it is at present.
P. forrestii, and other species based on Forrest collections, are included by Turner in P. nepalensis, but P. tomentosus is recognised.
Modern name
Some names used by Bean have now been superseded and are no longer familiar. To ensure that all plants can be easily found, under any name, we have cross-referenced to The Plant List, a collaboration between RBG Kew, Missouri Botanical Gardens and other organisations, which aims to provide a currently accepted name for any plant. Not all taxonomists will agree with all Plant List nomenclature, but it provides a baseline to compare names. For each species above, clicking on the Modern Name will link to the entry for that name on The Plant List website.
