In flower this resembles the last; but the fruit, instead of 
being a trigonous green capsule, is a succulent scarlet berry 
looking at first sight like the fruit of a Dracena. Wallich’s 
type of Tupistra singapureana is a specimen of this plant in 
fruit, from Singapore.

This is a very local plant, growing in damp spots, sometimes 
even in streams, with Pandani, &c. The stem is much longer 
than that of the other two species, and it has more of a 
tendency to creep. The flowers are white, tipped with green. 
The fruit resembles that of N. Lindleyi, Rolfe, being capsular.
