Diplomorpha trichotoma
is a deciduous shrub that grows to 1-2 meters tall and is found on
sunny forest edges in mountainous regions. Its branches are green at
first, then turn brown-purple, and sprigs emerge at the points a
little above the axils, which characterize this species. Leaves are
of alternate phyllotaxis, in an oval-oblong shape, 2-8cm in length
and 1-3.5cm in width, with entire margins. Petioles connecting the
leaves to the branches are minimal. Current units feature
approximately 10 yellow-white flowers at the apices; the
approximately 7 mm-long calyx tubes are cleft into 4 lobes at the
top, and the outer surfaces are yellow-white and hairless. Bloom
time: July-September. |
