This discussion reminds me that I have plants of an incredibly tiny roscoea, from seed collected in China by Jurasek, I believe (i'm away from the nursery this week and can't check).  I think it came labeled as R. tibetica, but it's much smaller - from memory, the plants are maybe 5cm tall, nd the flowers mabe 1.5-2cm across, with petals flared out sideways.  Most are pure white; a few are red-purple.  Does this ring a bell with anyone?  It's on my to-do list to try to key it out, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
