A rare and unusual but beautiful perennial that is strangely uncommon in cultivation. In mid to late summer the two-foot-high branching inflorescences of white to pale pink flowers with reddish spots rises from the basal rosette of softly hairy, lyrate foliage. Easy in any soil with partial shade. Native to Chile and very lovely with rhododendrons.  

A member of the Gesneriaceae (African Violet family) native to south-central China where it grows on mossy cliffs and rock faces. This is an evergreen herbaceous perennial with a basal rosette of thickly textured, smooth and glossy leaves from which arises a very short stem with several very large, inflated "snapdragon-like" flowers with pale purple tubes fading to white on the lobes with a yellow throat. The flowers are quite large for the size of the plant, a real stunner! A striking plant for a container, terrarium or shaded rockery. Should be relatively hardy.

This species forms a basal rosette of soft and hairy bright green leaves with the large (two inches long) white flowers on short stalks from the center of the plant. The flowers are enclosed for half their length in a fuzzy green calyx and feature a bright yellow flush in the throat - quite stunning. This species is in continuous bloom for several months each year. Native to southern China and Vietnam.
