Phragmanthera dschallensis (Engl.) M.G.Gilbert

Branches mostly pendent, 0.7–2 m. long; branchlets tomentellous with short dendritic mostly red-brown hairs, soon falling to leave a covering of grey stellate hairs and scales, glabrescent.. Leaves subopposite to irregularly ternate, subsequently clustered on short shoots; petiole 2–10 mm. long; lamina grey-green, coriaceous, linear-lanceolate to narrowly elliptic-oblong, 3–15 cm. long, 0.5–1.5(–2.5) cm. wide, tapered at either end, acute to obtuse at the apex, with minute grey stellate hairs and very short evanescent red-brown dendritic hairs, glabrescent, with 4–8 pairs of lateral nerves soon becoming obscure.. Umbels confluent around old axils, mostly after primary leaves have fallen and often below tufts of new leaves, sessile, 2–4-flowered; pedicels 1–3 mm. long; bract ovate, ± acuminate at the apex, 3–5 mm. long, tomentellous to glabrate.. Receptacle obconic to broadly barrel-shaped, 2.5–3 mm. long, tomentellous.. Calyx 1.5–2 mm. long, truncate to slightly lobed, less hairy, ciliate.. Corolla 4.5–6 cm. long, orange-red with red filament-lines, lobes sometimes reddish but tips cream inside, tomentellous with grey stellate hairs and very short red-brown dendritic hairs less than 0.5 mm. long, often slightly glabrescent on basal swelling; apical swelling of bud ovoid-ellipsoid, apiculate, 4–5 mm. long, 3.5–4 mm. in diameter, slightly 5-ribbed; basal swelling 5–7 mm. long, 4 mm. in diameter; lobes erect, 1.1–1.3 cm. long; tips elliptic, 4–5 mm. long, 2–2.5 mm. wide, conspicuously hardened inside.. Filaments red on lower part; anthers 2–2.8 mm. long, with 6–8 cells in each row.. Style red, generally distinctly lobed opposite top of corolla-tube, slightly tapered to neck; neck 2–2.8 mm. long.. Berry blue-green, ellipsoid, 1.5 cm. long, 1 cm. in diameter, with fine rufous stellate pubescence; seed blue-black.. Fig. 18/12–17 (p. 107).
