Sinningia "Desafinado"

Desafinado tuber


This tuber has an inverted-cone top.  It is quite unlike the "bagel" tuber of S. arenicola, or the flattened dome tuber of S. douglasii, with which it has been compared.

Here is a tuber which is best planted only half submerged in the soil.  The inverted-cone tuber is quite attractive.
