Description

Key Characters:

Growth Form: Plant 1.5–2.4 m tall.

Stems: Stem 0.4–1.5 m tall x 1.5–4 cm diam.

Roots:

Leaves: Leaves simple. Alternate. Blades oblanceolate or narrowly oblong, 10–24 cm long x 1.3–3.8 cm wide. Apex acute or acuminate. Base attenuate, cuneate, or obtuse. Margins subrevolute or merely thickened. Stipules absent.

Flowers: Flowers in inflorescence 1–1.5 m tall, unbranched (rarely with 1 or two clearly subordinate basal branches), 18–100–flowered; floral bracts 20–47 mm long x 6–16 mm wide, obovate, elliptic, or lanceolate; pedicels 15–45 mm long; hypanthium 8–15 mm long x 6–17 rmn diam. broadly obconic or campanulate, 1/5–1/10 as long as the corolla, glabrous or rarely pubescent. Flowers bisexual (perfect). Calyx 5-lobed, lobes 7.5–25 mm long x 3.5–9 mm wide, narrowly triangular or lanceolate, ¼ as long to 3 ½ times longer than the hypanthium, the margin entire and sometimes ciliate, the apex acuminate or acute and sometimes apiculate, sepals connate, tube adnate to ovary. Corolla zygomorphic, dorsally cleft almost to base, 67-96 mm long, white or rarely red, glabrous (rarely sparsely pubescent at apex of lobes); tube 26-45 mm long x 7-13 mm diam. at middle, suberect, 2.2-5 times longer than broad; dorsal lobes 35-70 mm long x 4-6 mm wide, 0.9-3.1 times as long as the tube; ventral lip 30-48 mm long x 12-28 mm wide. Stamens 5, alternate with corolla lobes; anthers with apical tufts of white hairs on all 5, dithecal, opening by longitudinal slits, coherent but separating after anthesis or connate and forming a tube into which pollen is shed; filaments distinct or connate above, attached to the epigynous nectary disk or to base of corolla, rarely adnate to corolla tube; filament tube 58–80 mm long, 4 ½–6 ¼ times longer than anther tube; anther tube 4–6.5 mm diam.; dorsal anthers 11–16 mm long; ventral anthers 8–13 mm long. Ovary inferior, 2-celled, often crowned with an annular nectary disk; ovule placentation axile, or when 1-celled with 2 parietal placentas; stigmas wet or dry, 2-lobed, appressed and nonreceptive as the style grows through the anther tube, pushing out the pollen, after which the stigmas spread apart and become receptive.

Fruit: Loculicidal capsules; 27–37 mm long x 10–15 mm diam; dehiscent at apex by 2 valves. Seeds numerous; with a straight; short to spatulate dicotyledonous embryo embedded in oily endosperm; 2–2.3 mm long x 1 mm wide; honey-brown.

Ploidy:
