Characterized by an exceedingly slender habit, few very narrow 
flowers, and scarcely exserted stamens. Until the ovary and fruit 
are better known the genus must remain doubtful.

Commonly cultivated and naturalized in India and tropical 
America, mostly with double flowers. The specimens collected 
by Mr. Ford in Kwangtung and by Dr. A. Henry in Hainan are 
the only good ones we have seen with single flowers. They have 
a rather long slender corolla ; but we have little doubt that they 
represent the wild condition of C. fragrans, Vent.
