Roscoea humeana 'Rosemoor Plum'



Selected at the Royal Horticultural Society gardens at Rosemoor, Roscoea humeana 'Rosemoor Plum' has rich plum purple flowers and vigorous growth. My plant shows some fine white streaking in the flower.
I got it from Long Acre Plants. Their label says:

"An unusual dark plum purple flowered form of this hardy woodland perennial."
