| King's Mantle (Thunbergia erecta Syn. Meyenia erecta), also known as bush clockvine and potato bush, is an upright shrub. Leaves are ovate-elliptic, and oppositely arranged. Flowers occur in leaf axils, either singly or in pairs, sitting on peduncles. Sepals' cup is short, bowl shaped. The flower tube flares open into five dark purple, roundish petals, yellowish-white at the base. It can be grown as a bush with weeping branches or it can be trained like a vine. King's Mantle is native to West Africa, but commonly cultivated in India. |
