Tricyrtis chinensis
Tricyrtis chinensis is a species of herbaceous plant belonging to the family Liliaceae. It occurs in southeastern China. Plants of this species used to be thought to belong to the Japanese species Tricyrtis macropoda but differ in several respects, most notably in that the rhizome is annual, rather than perennial. Above ground, T. chinensis is generally taller than T. macropoda (often over 1.5 m), with larger leaves and often many more flowers on each plant (sometimes over 50). The flowers are white or yellow with small purple spots (In T. macropoda the ground colour is always white).
