    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    These came from Dan with no collection data, he described them as forming colonies of 8" stems, evergreen with the typical nodding creamy bells, and warns of confusion with the larger D. fusca-picta from Sichuan. I admit to confusion, our plants have huge rhizomes as thick as your thumb that have not only cracked their stockpots but taken to climbing up and out of the pots, looking very green and photosynthetic and altogether almost epiphytic, not at all the demure little 8? thing I had expected, mind you I'm not complaining these are cool.

    Though Disporopsis arisanensis has officially become a synonym of the more accepted D. pernyi, we feel this is a different plant, needing a distinct name. By any name, this herbaceous perennial has glossy, evergreen foliage on arching stems with early spring flowers, creamy white bell flowers delicately marked inside -- ok, you have to get on your knees to see the markings -- producing purple-blue berries in autumn. This rare ground cover spreads by underground rhizomes to form small colonies achieving only 10-12" in height in full shade with regular summer water. Frost hardy in USDA zone 7.
