''Mandragora caulescens'', the Himalayan mandrake,〔 is a perennial herbaceous plant in the family Solanaceae, native to the Himalayas and mountainous regions of Myanmar and south-west China. One of the differences from the other species of ''Mandragora'' is that it has a stem, whereas they are stemless. Like all species of ''Mandragora'', it contains tropane alkaloids, making it toxic. It is used in traditional Chinese medicine. ==Description== ''Mandragora caulescens'' is a perennial herbaceous plant with a thick root. There is considerable variability in the size and shape of its parts and in the colour of its flowers. Unlike other members of the genus ''Mandragora'', it usually has a stem, long (sometimes up to ), making the plant as a whole usually tall. The leaves are mostly basal but are also found along the stem. They are up to long, including the stalk (petiole).〔〔 The flowering period is from April or May to July or September, with fruits appearing until October. The flowers are borne singly on stalks (pedicels) long. The sepals are joined at the base to form a lobed cup-shaped structure, often nearly as long as the petals. The petals are dark purple or yellow, similarly joined at the base with lobes about half their length of . The stamens are joined to the base of the petals, and vary considerably in length, with the anthers long. The fruit is a berry, greenish white to yellow in colour, up to across. The numerous seeds are yellow to light brown, long.〔〔
