Roscoea cautleyoides

Planted in quite a bit of shade, fairly moist (the whole garden is moist this year lol.) but pretty awful soil but seems to be doing well it's been in about 4 years :o)

Mine are only just getting going.................

very nice, the snails got mine this year...

Thanks both,
M. This one always flowers well before the others, they are only just emerging at the moment.
Sl. Never had problems with snails eating these they are probably to busy eating my hostas!

Ahh there you go i have no hosta's :-)

:o)

It looks to delicate to be grown outside ,lovely !

They seem very hardy this one survived -14 a couple years ago, I have a couple of new ones this year just poking through the soil, so fingers crossed for flowers in a few weeks :o)

- 14 that's an amazingly tough plant !
