Kendrickia (personal commemorative name). Melastomaceae. A warmhouse root-climber from S. India and Ceylon, where the sts. "in their lower part creep up trees like ivy, hence flattened with the lvs. distichous." Species one, K. walkeri, Hook, f., offered abroad: lvs. opposite, fleshy, stalked, oblong or obovate, obtuse, about 1 ½ in. long, the margins glandular-hairy and the surface dotted white: fls. "tinging the forest red" when the plants ascend to the tops of the tallest trees, borne in few-fld. umbels or solitary; calyx rose- purple, urn-shaped; corolla bright red, the 4 fleshy petals about 1 in. long; stamens 8, equal, the anthers opening at the apex by a pore and somewhat produced or extended at the base: fr. a globose caps, opening by 4-6 valves at the apex. Probably requires the treatment given other warm melastomaceous plants. See Melastoma- L. H. B. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
