A small species from Laos, China and Hong Kong coming from areas with a distinct dry season at altitudes of 400 to 1300 m.It produces numerous aerials and has solitary flowers 4-5 cm. across and last around 3 weeks.Best mounted because of its rambling habit.

Thanks for identifying this for me, I tried to send a second photo of it, but couldnt work out how to do that. The poor thing has lost all of its leaves over the year, but does have some new growth coming through, will post second photo shortly. I dont know what is wrong with it.

Hi davo These ones lose
Hi davo
These ones lose their leaves over winter as a normal part of their cycle so don't fret.
The new growth now is also normal and as they get bigger you can start to increase watering and fertilizing.
