Types of Peliosanthes

Peliosanthes macrostegia

Peliosanthes macrostegia (Peliosanthes macrostegia) is an attractive evergreen perennial that can be grown well as a greenhouse underplanting species, due to its frost-tenderness and low growth. Its deep blue flowers have attractive yellow tips and droop gracefully below long slender leaves, more than justifying its ornamental status.

China lily

China lily grows low on mountainsides and hillsides in the shade of wet temperate to subtropical forests. It is a low-slung, odd-looking plant. Its small, capsule-like white or pale blue flowers sit in a "nest" of broad, simple leaves.
