Diaspananthus uniflorus BSWJ11336

Description

A semi-evergreen monotypic woodland perennial genus closely related to and resembling Ainsliaea, we collected seed of in a high mountain forest on Shikoku Island Japan in 2006. Growing in heavy shade, where it formed rosettes of deeply lobed palmate leaves to 15 cm across, with tall slender inflorescences topped by pendant purple protruding ray flowers encased in scaly bracts. Easily grown in a well drained soil with plenty of added humus for moisture retention, in light to dark shade.
