Description: From our epic expedition to eastern Nepal with Dan Hinkley and Jamaica Kincaid in 2002, while descending the Mewa Khola. A seed collection at 2200m from what was then a starved demur plant growing as a lithophyte on large boulders, that has developed while growing terrestrially in our stock field, into a robust version of its former self. With slender green stems to around 80cm tall, bearing up to 6 base-clasping lanceolate all green leaves, topped by a spike of up to 14 lemon yellow orchid-like flowers, from reddish bracted calyces June to August. We have found this collection to be perfectly hardy in our stock field even in sun, in a well-drained soil full of organic moisture retentive compost.
