Chirita monantha



12th September 2006


From north west Hunnan, China. Grows in forests and valley streamsides, it seems to have done fairly well in the greenhouse here under the shade of a Dicksonia, but I have yet to see the promised single purple flowers.

Flowers at last! I'm a little worried about the number of flower buds on the scape, but I'm choosing to ignore it at the moment!
