Trevesia

Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Trevesia (after the family Treves di Bonfigli of Padua, patrons of botany). Araliaceae. Showy and rather striking small trees or shrubs from Trop. Asia and the islands in that region: lvs. either palmately cut and simple, or digitately or pinnate compound: fls. rather large for the family and borne in panicled umbels; petals 8-12, valvate, somewhat thick; stamens 8-12; ovary 8-12-loculed: fr. large, ovoid.—About 9 species. Should be grown in a warm moist house, as the plants naturally grow in damp jungles. T. Sanderi, Hort. Lvs. handsome, deeply cut, borne on long cylindrical petioles; lf.-blade nearly circular in outline, 2 ft. across, digitate, the divisions irregularly pinnatifid and joined at the base. Perhaps a form of what is known in cult. as T. Sundaica. Annam. G.C. III. 53:295.— T. sundaica, Regel, is apparently a form of T. palmata; T. sundaica, Miq., is a distinct species from Java and Sumatra, with infl. becoming recurved. See Gilibertia.
