Two Paris in need of names

[Pascal B]

sadly its the one with no bswj number...
yes thats the one the expensive giant one..i potted it in a largeish pot .but not to big i was scared of it rotting.if it comes to anything i will take a picture.ive had a few paris over the years from chen yi.
which have all mostly done ok..where are you located pascal? you will have to post some pics of them.

Mmm, I assumed it was one of their Taiwan collections, sorry, then you have to ask Crûg if it is a Chinese mainland clone. Here is a picture of the Taiwanese form in situ as well as a picture of the second Taiwan species. After seeing these pictures Li Heng stated both species on Taiwan are varieties of P. polyphylla but I don't believe that is correct. Not only do I not believe in a species that is split into 9 varieties, both Taiwan taxa occur side by side, are morphologically very distinct and do not hybridise.

well this is the paris chen yi species 305{hopefully}it should grow to 7 feet...i got the very large rhizome in december with its dinted shoot..thats the reason its distorted and the leaves not developed properley.also its only about 14 inch tall .but for a paris to emerge within 2 months of planting am quite happy.i have it on a cool windowsill. the flowre has a violet ovary .so anyone recognise it?is it right?.

I'm sorry I haven't had time to resize the photos in the last posts here of manicbotanic.... but they are a bit on the large size....  recommended Forum size is 760 pixels wide.

 Paul, I am VERY grateful. 

 Manicbotanic (Sean)  tells me he is just getting to grips with resizing.... something that many find tricky... had a friend here only yesterday to ask about the same thing! 

 Will be sending Sean the pdf that a pal of Kentgardener prepared about picture preparation for our sort of 'thing'.....
