Members of the genus have funnel-shaped flowers, which show diverse bluish colours. They occur in many-flowered cymes on long, erect stems, which can grow up 1 m long. The basal leaves are curved, lanceolate, and are up to 60 cm long. The genus contains the following species as well as a number of hybrids.
