Fl. Napal. 14. 1824. )〕〔( 中国高等植物图鉴 中国植物志 Flora of China 手机植物志APP 中国高等植物 泛喜马拉雅植物志 中国在线植物志 ''Beaumontia'' Wallich 清明花属 qing ming hua shu )〕〔(Botanica Sistematica )〕 ;Description ''Beaumontia'' plants are often rampant climbers and vines. They are mostly evergreen, though in subtropical gardens ''Beaumontia grandiflora'' loses many leaves in winter. Leaves are large, smooth and opposite with sticky white sap. The large white fragrant flowers are borne in corymbs terminal and in the leaf axils. The calyx is 5-lobed and the corolla is dark funnel-or bell-shaped with 5 lobes. Stamens are attached near the base of the corolla tube and have slender filaments with arrow-shaped anthers. They are very showy when in full bloom and are regarded as among the most outstanding vines of the world. The fruits comprises a pair of thick woody follicles. ;Cultivation The ''Beaumontia'' species are cultivated as ornamental plants, with ''Beaumontia grandiflora'' widely grown by the nursery trade. They prefer good soil, adequate water and hot moist conditions. They are found planted and trained as vines in subtropical climate gardens, such as in Southern California.〔Graf, Alfred Byrd (1986) Tropica: color cyclopedia of exotic plants and trees for warm-region horticulture—in cool climate the summer garden or sheltered indoors; 3rd ed.
