Rodgersia aesculifolia (F 132) is perfectly magnificent in the richest, 

 coolest, and darker aspects of the great Siku gorge, growing 4 or 5 feet 

 high in the corners under the cliff, with enormous metallic foliage and foamy 

 white blossom in crest over crest to the summit of the spumy pyramid — by 

 far the most superb of Rodgersias when in such form, and completely vanquish- 

 ing the utmost effort of Astilbe and Spiraea. It is general all over the lower 

 alpine coppice of the Siku-Satance Tanges, and, above Siku, even lingers hand- 

 somely on hot dry hills of coarse grass, from which the woodland has been 

 pitilessly cleared for many generations. 



Salvia Sp. (F 169) is a magnificent herbaceous plant of 3 or 4 feet, 

 abounding in the lower alpine turf of the Tibetan highlands away down 

 to Satanee. It is a stalwart and stately grower, and in August bears large 

 heads and whorls of large and very richly violet-purple, which in our gardens 

 unfortunately deteriorates. 



Salvia Sp. (F 227) is very common in low hot dry places all up the Border.
