Bletilla striata Tri Lips Hymenoxys prevalent throughout TexasThis bizarre selection of the Japanese ground orchid, Bletilla striata, makes a nice deciduous clump of pleated green leaves, topped in late April (NC) with narrow flower stalks. Each 2' stalk is adorned with dark purple flowers that each have three lips instead of the normal one sort of like you would look after a boxing match with Mike Tyson. Bletilla striata 'Tri Lips' is truly one of the strangest mutations I've ever seen on a hardy perennial.
