long-petioled radical lvs. and fls. borne in spikes or simple
racemes: perianth- tube above the ovary, short, broad, campanulate;
limb spreading-rotate with 6 subequal, broad, obtuse lobes; stamens 6
with very short filaments; ovary inferior, 3- celled; stigma 3-lobed;
cells with 2 ovules erect from the base, anatropous; seeds oblong or
globose, fleshy. About 12 species from India, the E. Indies, and
Malayan Peninsula. The following have occasionally appeared in cult:
P. Teta, Andr. Lvs. 2—7; petiole variable in length: scape naked or

raceme 6- 12 in.; bracts 1-3 to every fascicle of fls., pedicels
short; fls. l/4-1/3in. diam., purplish or bluish green: seeds as
