    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Excellent form of the species from our 2010 seed collection on the slopes of Leigongshan in Guizhou, China at 5600'. Steve Hootman was lucky enough to see this population in flower so we know what they look like. Nicely packed flowers more horizontal than pendulous with more purple in the throat than typical and frankly more attractive than typical. We were dancing in the woods when we saw the tall seed stalks marching up the slope and can only imagine what we will do when we see them flower! Previously offered as C, giganteum CGG14022 which was an inexplicable typo on the collection number.
