Guide

The species-level account. Cultivar pages build on this and say where they differ.

A scrambling shrub native to subtropical and monsoonal South and Southeast Asia, where it grows in warm conditions with seasonal rainfall. It wants bright light with some direct morning sun, and a fast-draining mix that is allowed to approach dryness between waterings. Water when the top inch of mix is dry; let it dry slightly more in winter when growth slows.
