Hello folks, I updated the PBS wiki pages with the following additions: 1. Replaced old (poor) photo of Iris henryi with two new ones taken this year. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… 2. Added a new photo taken today in the rain, of Iris gracilipes var. alba "Buko Form", perhaps one of the choicest Iris of all. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… 3. Added 4 photos plus commentary on Roscoea cautleoides. My plants are light yellow and notoriously difficult to get good color rendition in a digital photo... the color always look white or washed out. I took a couple additional photos today in the pouring rain. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… Regarding Roscoea, I'm curious as to why I frequently see the species name spelled "cautleyoides", and wonder if it did have an alternate spelling at one point, or is it just a spelling corruption. Checking out the online Flora of China at... http://efloras.org/florataxon.aspx/… satisfies my curiousity whether this species is mixed up in cultivation or really as variable in the wild as cultivated plants might indicate. Certainly some nursery websites show a range of forms and flowering times that make one wonder if it's all one species. http://plantsforshade.co.uk/acatalog/Roscoea.html/ Sure enough, in the Flora of China, it's reported as growing 6-24" (15-60 cm) tall, flowering before or with the foliage, flowering anytime between May - August depending on the colony, with flowers that can be yellow, purple, white, or less commonly pink.
