Musella lasiocarpa images

Inflorescences "in the wild" in Yunnan, China. Botanists think that Musella is extinct in the wild in China and maintained only in cultivation by farmers and as an ornamental. This isolated clump growing apparently wild may be an escape from or a relict of cultivation.  Images courtesy of Pieter Voogt.
