Medium Band Pot
Siskiyou Wild Ginger.  This is a little gem found only in the Siskiyou and Cascade mountains in far southern Oregon and rarely in far northern California.  A little clumper which doesn't make spreading mats like the more familiar Asarum canadense or A. caudatum but makes a dense mound of glossy foliage often well-marbled in silver.  Small reddish purple flowers are interesting to people like us.  We've seen this species many times tramping in the botanical wonderland that is the Siskiyous and have seen it growing in shaded dry forests as well as perhaps most freakishly, happily in sheer rock faces in sun where you would expect to find Penstemon growing.  One of those sights that wreaked havoc with our preconceptions of just where such a plant should be most happy.
