Outwardly very like G. honguensis, Hiern, but the leaves are smaller and 
relatively broader, and the corolla is narrowed from near the middle to the 
base instead of narrowing suddenly. The insertion of the stamens is also 
different in the two cases. 
А large, handsome shrub with glossy evergreen foliage and drooping 
branches. The bark is smooth and grey, and studded with blunt thorns.
