Bolandra is a small genus of plants related to the saxifrages. It contains two species known as false coolworts. These are perennials with toothed leaves and inflorescences of curling, sharp-petalled flowers. They are both native to western North America.


Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Bolandra (H. N. Bolander, Californian botanist). Saxifragaceae. Two species of small W. American herbs offered for borders and wild gardens.

Flowers purplish in lax corymbs; petals 5, inserted on the throat of the 5-lobed calyx ; stamens 5, alternate with petals. Delicate herbs, suitable for rockwork where there is a plentiful supply of moisture.

The first-described species, B. californica. Gray, seems not to have been offered in the trade. It is a smaller species, less pubescent with smaller fls., the lower Lvs. round-reniform and 5-lobed: plant 3-12 in. high, the sts. weak and slender.
