Tupistra (Greek, mallet, alluding to the peculiar shape of the stigma). Liliaceae. Perennial herbs grown in the warmhouse. Rhizome stout, sometimes short and tuberous, sometimes elongated and annulate: lvs. radical, long, large, contracted into the petiole: scape radical, between the lvs., short or elongated, erect or recurved at the top, simple, terminated by a dense cylindrical spike: fls. sessile, grouped, violet or lurid: perianth campanulate, 6-, rarely 8-lobed, short and spreading; stamens as many as corolla-lobes; ovary free, sessile, 3- rarely 4-celled, cells 2-ovuled: berry globose, usually 1-seeded.—About 13 species, India, Burma, and Malaya. Probably no species in general cult.
The following species have been intro. into botanic gardens: T. Clarkei, Hook. f. Robust glabrous herb with a thick creeping rhizome: lvs. oblanceolate, 4-5 ft. long, 2-5 in. broad, entire, shining: peduncles 3 in. long, bearing nodding or almost pendulous spikes, 3-4 in. long: fls. about 1 1/4 in. across, dull reddish purple inside, at first green with perianth-lobes purple-margined, finally all buff. Sikkim. B.M. 7957.—T. grandis, Ridley. Lvs. tufted, 2-3 ft. long, lanceolate: peduncle stout, red-brown, bearing a spike 10-12 in. long: fls. subsessile, crowded; perianth campanulate, tube 1/2 in. long, red-brown, lobes dark red-purple; stigma broadly peltate, on a white columnar, exserted style. Perak. B.M. 7829.—T. Macrostigma, Baker (Macrostigma tupistroides, Kunth). Rhizome thick, creeping: flowering tufts usually 2-lvd.: lvs. petioled, lanceolate, 1 ft. or more long, acute, chartaceous, narrowed from above the middle to the point and petiole, bright green on both surfaces: peduncle dark purple, erect; spike drooping, lax, about 2-3 in. long: perianth campanulate, dark purple, about 1/2 in. across; ovary globose. Mountains of N. India. B.M. 6280. Gt. 6:130.—T. perakensis, Hort., is not known botanically; it is described as having elegant narrow lvs. and erect fl.-spikes 8 in. long, the upper half clothed with fleshy shining, purple fls. with a pure white, disk-like spreading flat stigma. Singapore.
