Pleione formosana

·
This cold growing species is native to the mountains of Formosa. Because it is cold tolerant, it can be naturalized in much of the northern area of the US including SW OH where this plant lives. The picture shows a pink form. There are others including alba. This plant is grown in a pot. It is vernalized in an old refrigerator and put back outside when the weather begins to warm.
