purplish. JVowers pendulous, in few-flowered corymbs, about 
an inch long. Calyx and base of the pedicel deep-red, lobes of 
the calyx almost membranaceous. Corolla with a strongly five- 
angled tube, having a prominent rib at each angle, nearly white, 
beautifully marbled between the angles with slender, waving, 
transverse, purple or blood-red bands, giving it an exquisitely 
beautiful and china-like appearance, the mouth contracted and 
greenish. Anthers with minute spurs at the back, about the 
middle. Berry fleshy, insipid. The calyx-lobes vary a good 
deal in length and breadth, and the peduncles and pedicels also 
in length. —
