internodes very long. Leaves ovate, very large, their margins undulated 
and ciliated, hairy beneath, nearly glabrous above, petioles short. Stipules

hairs at their base, not more than half the length of the internodes, but 
longer than the petioles. Flowers in large panicles, the branches of which 
are nearly simple; bractez shorter than the pedicels, one-flowered, their 
base hairy; flowers 8-androus, 3-gynous, their segments equal, obovate 
and blunt. Fruit trigonous, very young on our specimens.
