petioles 0.5-1 cm long. The plant blossoms profusely over a long period with many small and tubular pendent flowers, in brilliant shades of red and purple, softer shades of pink and lavender, and some in white. The perfect flowers are axillary and pendent, with peduncles 3-4.5 cm long, a magenta floral tube 10-13 mm long, magenta sepals 20-25 mm long, and dark purple petals 10-13 mm long that become convolute after anthesis. The stamens are exserted, with filaments 25-30 mm long. The berries are ellipsoid, 10-15 mm long and 0.7-0.9 mm wide. Chromosome count is 2n = 44.
