NEW, RARE AND DESIRABLE STOVE PLANTS. 
A free-growing slender woody climber, from the Fiji Islands. It has opposite leaves, consisting of 
about twelve pairs of leaflets, which are small, ovate, deeply cut into two or three lobes on each side, 
the larger lobes being sometimes also toothed. The growth and general character of the plant are so 
elegant that whether cultivated as a small pot plant, trained on globular or other trellises, or planted 
as a climber, it has a most charming and engaging appearance. 3s. and 5s.
