Thibet, etc., 10,000-14,000 ft., on exposed hillsides, but seeking the shade of overhanging banks. Gn. 31:444; 62, p. 131.—Correvon describes it as a stout, strong-looking plant, with stiff upright slightly toothed lvs. (often untoothed), dark green above and bright white generally yellowish beneath, long and narrow: fls. very dark purple, numerous, drooping because of the length of the pedicel, which, with the st., is covered with white powder; corolla deeply cut: scape 8-12 in. high.
