Read about Ambrosinia bassii in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture 

Ambrosinia bassii, Linn. Three or 4 in.: Lvs. 2 or 3, overtopping the spathe, the lf.-blade ovate or ovate-elliptic, obtuse, often retuse: spathe ¾ in. long, tipped with a brown tail, divided lengthwise, the anthers being in one compartment (which has a hole to admit insects), and the solitary ovary in the other, thus preventing automatic close pollination. B.M. 6360.—There is a narrow- leaved form (var. angustifolia, Guss.), a spotted- leaved form (var. maculata, Engler), and a form with pale green reticulations (var. reticulata, Engler). Propagation is by seeds started inside or in frames, or by division in spring.
