Paederia scandens
is a perennial vine in sunny thickets, riverbanks, and grasslands.
Stems extend long to twine clockwise (when looked at above) around
the other plants. Leaves are opposite, 4-10cm long, 1-7cm wide, in
an oblong or long ovate shape, with tips pointed, and petiole bases
with triangular ramentums formed by right-and-left-bonding stipules.
Axils bear short cymes and sparsely set gray-white flowers. Corollas
are about 1cm long, bell-shaped, with tips shallowly cleft into five
and open flat; throats and insides are red-purple. Drupes,
spherical, about 5mm in diameter, mature in yellow-brown. Bloom
time: August-September. |
