Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Large tropical evergreen shrubs or small trees (typically much smaller in cultivation) with shiny leaves in pseudowhorls. The abundantly produced tubular flowers with flaring lobes are quite variable in color. These are grown from seed collected in the wild from a population with pure yellow flowers – very beautiful. Easily grown and extremely floriferous, this is one of the best vireyas for the beginner. A common species throughout New Guinea.
