| Tricantha dodsonii Gesneriaceae Grown by Katherine Henwood in Pacifica. This is a spectacular plant about two feet tall with hairy foliage of dark green tinged reddish-brown. The plant was in bloom all along the stem with 2" cardinal red flowers emerging from the leaf axils. This is a native of Ecuador growing in cool montane regions. It branches from the base and produces a berry like fruit. Perhaps hardy to the mid 40's. |
