Curr. A climbing plant, which, as regards its habit, may 
be considered a thin-leaved Hoya. Being a native of Java, 
it requires to be kept in a warm and moist stove. A mixture 
of light loam and peat will suit it, and during its season of rest 
care must be taken that it is not saturated with water. Its 
pendulous umbels of flowers are shown most to advantage by 
training the plant up a rafter, or something similar, in a nearly 
horizontal direction. It is easily propagated by cuttings. J. S.
