a deciduous vine arboreous plant found in low hill forests, grows to

them and losing later. Rhizomes extend themselves long. Leaves are
of alternate phyllotaxis, thick, and blades varying from circular to
triangular, 10-15cm in length; bases are heart-shaped. Peduncles,
3-5cm long, singly emerge from leaf axils and put single
saxophone-like yellow flowers on the tips. There are purple-brown
striped pattern insides. Perianth tubes, having hairs outside,
extend themselves downward and bend upward at points halfway, and
edges shallowly cleft inward. Bloom time: March-May. |
