   This member of the Asclepiadaceae* family was described by H. Kunze,  U. Meve and S. Liede in 1994. It grows in a well drained soil with some water and lots of sun. The irregular caudex can grow to 50 centimetres or more, the wines for three meters or more. The small flowers are green with a white centre.

*This family might be incorporated in the Apocynaceae family now.

A plant from Specks.
