Aspidistra tillichiana

A little-known Vietnamese Aspidistra, a rhizomatous forest-floor herb with leaves and ground-level flowers rising straight from the rhizome. Almost nothing is published on its habitat, so these conditions are built from a regional climate point in Vietnam and from what is typical for the genus: deep shade, steady moisture and warm, humid air.

Where it grows wild

No habitat details are published for this species. Like other Aspidistra it is presumably a terrestrial herb of humid evergreen forest understory, quite possibly on limestone as many Vietnamese species are.

Elevation unknown; the climate point used is a lowland site (about 116 m) in central Vietnam chosen from the country-level range, not an actual collection.
