Cautleya
''Cautleya'' is a small genus of perennial plants of the family Zingiberaceae (the ginger family), found in the eastern Himalayas through to China and Vietnam. It consists of two species of high-altitude tropical and temperate plants, native to cool forest areas – an unusual habitat for members of the Zingiberaceae. They are grown as ornamental flowering plants. Description ''Cautleya'' species grow from short rhizomes which have thick, fleshy roots. They have "pseudostems" formed by the tightly wrapped basal sheaths of their leaves. Depending on the species, the pseudostems may be high. Individual leaves consist of a sheath and a blade. At the junction of the sheath and blade, there is a stalk ( petiole), which may be very short or absent. The plants die back in the winter with shoots appearing again in spring. The yellow or orange flowers appear in the summer and are grouped into a spike (inflorescence). Each flower is surrounded by a persistent coloured bract. The sepals a ...

Roscoea
''Roscoea'' is a genus of perennial plants of the family (biology), family Zingiberaceae (the ginger family). Most members of the family are tropical, whereas ''Roscoea'' species are native to mountainous regions of the Himalayas, China and its southern neighbours. ''Roscoea'' flowers superficially resemble orchids, although they are not related. The flowers of ''Roscoea'' have a complicated structure, in which some of the showy coloured parts are not formed by petals, but by staminodes, sterile stamens which have evolved to become like petals. Some species are grown as ornamental plants in gardens. Description ''Roscoea'' is found from Kashmir through the Himalayas to Vietnam, extending northwards into China. There are up to 22 recognized species, of which 8 are endemic to China. Typically they grow in grassland, in Scree, screes or on the edges of deciduous woodland at heights of , coming into growth at the start of the monsoon season.
