Pink flowered unknown

[brianw]

Hi All

I can't remember what this is or where I got it. Typical fresh light green bulb/rhizome type soft V section foliage with small pink/white flowers. 2 photos attached. Closeup and with Leucojum autumnale behind for reference. Leafed up some in summer but has been outside since. Each flower seems to produce a seedpod.

Hi brian,
it looks a bit like Roscoea scillifolia

I think fermi is correct; Roscoea scillifolia

Thank you. You are correct.
Think I put some in the cold house last winter because it gets a bit lost, and "slugged" in the garden. It is not really suitable for my garden.

Another or the larger Roscoa's have has started regrowing again after the drought wiped it out earlier. Maybe more flowers.

Hope it's OK to hijack the thread - I have another pink flowered unknown sent to me by a friend.

Pictured mid August in Albanian mountains.  I'm stumped - can you help?

Looks  like Lamiaceae - perhaps a Salvia or Agastache?
