Hello Kitty,
    I had the e and the a reversed in my last message on Roscoea. That did
not help your search. Also try and search with a species name.... like
Roscoea alpina, or purpurea. Purpurea is the most commonly available
species, I believe. The Plants and their flowers resemble hooded orchids.
    If you located a photo of a Ramonda in flower, you pretty much saw a
Jankea in flower. Closely related.

I have a few .jpgs of Roscoea (alpina, beesiana, capitata, purpurata,
scillifolia) which I can send on to anybodies who'd like to look.
