A charming collection from Crug Farm Plants. It has pale flowers and thick, tall, red pseudostems with heavily corrugated surfaces. Crug Farm Plants say: "A collection from steep cliffs in the village of Cheng close to the Tibetan border in North- Eastern Nepal. Where their fleshy roots formed an enveloping dense carpet, with sturdy upright stems to 75cm tall. With stem-sheathing narrow foliage and congested terminal clusters of elongated seed capsules, which had succeeded the broad-lipped orchid-like successive flowers, variably coloured from white to purple June-October. Easily grown in sun or shade in a humus-rich soil that is drained." |
