_A beautiful species showing markedly the twining character in 
the flower-stalks as well as in the vegetative stem. Accessory 
flower-shoots are developed regularly and acropetally in the axils 
of the leaves. The first axillary shoot developed forms commonly 
an elongated cyme, ending in a flower and bearing three or four 
pair of leaves below, all or some only of which give rise to flowers. 
The accessory shoot may do likewise or form only a single ter- 
minal flower the peduncle of which shows only a pair, occasionally 
two pairs, of small leaflets at its base. Towards the termination of 
the vegetative twigs the elongated cymes may not develope and the 
accessory buds may remain arrested. The length of the flower 
peduncle varies, a terminal flower of a cyme may have one several 
inches long. The ovary has hardly any stipe, and as it enlarges it 
causes rupture of the calyx dimidiately along one side in the 
same fashion as Franchet describes it in C. Delavayi. From that 
species C. Trazlliana is at once distinguished by its large flowers.
