The pure white flowering form of this hardy gateway drug gesner. Has everything the die-hards love about the genus with the leathery evergreen rosettes and amiably nodding open faced flowers. Happy on rock or in a sharply drained situation. Divisions off of seed grown plants from the original clone.
A purple flowering variety of this Asian gesneriad. While the leaves are pretty typical of the family at maturity, the immature leaves are incredibly textured like the interior of corrugated cardboard, or pruned fingers from a overly luxurious bath. Bright purple, tubular, star-shaped flowers somewhere between Nicotiana and Asarum held in small stalked clumps above the rosette. Prefers a rocky wet but well drained spot akin to its native environment.
Typically a white-flowered Tasmanian native evergreen tree, this pink version was found in 1984 by Ken Gillanders. Must have been jaw-dropping as the plant was 65' tall although the tallest in cultivation is perhaps 25'. Serious authorities have it hardy zones 7-10 but we'll say Z 8-10 and best sheltered from freezing/drying wind. Bees love this adding kinetic beauty plus the species accounts for the majority of honey production in Tasmania. These are small cutting grown trees.
The epitome of woodland delicacy, and one of the rarest fawn lily species being found only in a handful of sites in Oregon's Northern coast range. flared lily-like white flowers tinged the lightest blush pink at the tips gracing the garden only in Springtime and among the last of the group to flower, bidding fond farewell to the naive joys of nature's annual early stirrings. Incongruously adaptable despite it's specificity of native range and found growing in myriad conditions.
