'''''Incarvillea''''' is a [[genus]] of 16 species of [[flowering plant]]s in the family [[Bignoniaceae]], native to central and eastern [[Asia]], with most of the species growing at high altitudes in the [[Himalaya]] and [[Tibet]]. The most familiar species is ''Incarvillea delavayi'', a garden plant commonly known as "hardy gloxinia" or "Chinese trumpet flower". Unlike most other members of Bignoniaceae, which are usually trees or lianas, species of ''Incarvillea'' are stemless perennial herbs with fleshy tuberous roots.
Incarvillea is named after the french [[jesuit]], [[Pierre Nicholas Le Chéron d'Incarville]].
