Roscoea

Roscoea - A small though interesting genus of tuberous rooted plants from China and the Himalayas, of easy cultivation if planted 4 to 5 inches deep in sandy loam. All are dwarf growing. The best known species is R. purpurea, with richly colored flowers on stems 9 inches or so high. R. Cantlioides is somewhat taller growing, the erect leafy stems being terminated by a cluster of yellow flowers of delicate beauty. They are distinct from all else, and of a beauty quite apart. That last-named does not appear above ground till quite late in spring.
