Diana; I checked Kubitzki in "Families and Genera of Vascular plants" and he states that it is like Cypella but flowering stems with a conspicuous terminal cauline leaf extending above the apically clustered rhipidia: flowers yellow, blue to purple or white. About 6 spp., S. America to Mexico and West Indies. No information of flowering time. If you want the entire description let me know and i can send it to you privately. Arnold
