(Melanthiaceae)
Heloniopsis tubiflora BSWJ822
Description
From one of our collection gathered on the Sobaeksan mountain range in the cold north-east of South Korea in 1993. Where this rosette forming perennial formed clumps of tight circular prostrate rosettes of thin textured lance shaped leaves. With a sturdy slowly expanding green scape bearing a terminal umbel of nodding, blue-purple flowers in early spring. Height and spread 10-30cm. Best grown in partial to full shade in a moisture retentive but well drained soil, at an angle to allow excess water to drain out of the rosette.
