Petrocosmea kerrii 'Creme de Crug' BSWJ.6634



27th December 2008


Collected by Crug Farm Plants near the summit of Doi Phohompok in northern Thailand.
Didn't start to grow for me until quite late in the season, so I am a little concerned that it might not prosper in low temperatures, despite its high altitude origins.
The Crug Farm Plants catalogue entry reads:

Our collection of this diminutive perennial, that we found growing on vertical mossy tree-trunks as an epiphyte. From a lofty altitude of 2280m almost at the summit of Doi Phohom-Pok, Northern Thailand. Evergreen perennial with softly hairy leaves, in late spring and early summer, bears flat white flowers with yellow centres, borne on short stems.
