Summary

A study of the Valley of Flowers National Park, Uttarakhand, India, identifies 15 plant species with medicinal properties for treating common health disorders. These findings challenge the accuracy of online research on valley flora, highlighting discrepancies likely due to increased tourism and climate change. The study documents over 600 species in August, a period marked by floral abundance, while comparing observed species with digital records. This work underscores the need for accurate documentation to support traditional medicine and conservation efforts.
