Cautleya spicata
''Cautleya spicata'' is a perennial herbaceous plant in the family Zingiberaceae (the gingers). It is found in the Himalayas through to China (Yunnan).〔 It is cultivated as an ornamental garden plant, hardy to a few degrees of frost.
==Description==
What appear to be stems in ''Cautleya'' species are actually "pseudostems" formed by the tightly wrapped bases or sheaths of the leaves. In ''C. gracilis'', the pseudostems are tall. There are 4–7 leaves with a stalk (petiole) long between the sheath that forms part of the pseudostem and the blade which is free. The leaf blades are long by wide. The inflorescence appears in July in the native habitat of the species and takes the form of a dense spike about long.〔
Each flower has a complex structure. A red bract surrounds the sepals, which are largely fused, forming a tubular calyx, split along one side. The calyx is shorter than the bract, being long. Inside the calyx, the three petals are fused at the base to form a tube about the same length as the calyx. At the end of the tube the petals form three lobes, long. Inside the petals are three petal-like structures (staminodes). The two side staminodes are upright, more-or-less the same size as the central petal lobe. The lip or labellum is about long, bent downwards and divided into two at the tip.〔
The single stamen has a two-pronged "spur" at base of the anther, formed by connective tissue. The seed capsule is red when ripe, splitting to reveal the black seeds which have a white aril.〔
