Climbing on tree stems in deep shade, I thought maybe a Codonanthe, there are 6 species for the area but none of them match.. http://floradobrasil.jbrj.gov....
One amongst them is Coconanthe devosiana, and I found lots of pics in our database, it does look like my plant, but doesn't match the herbarium examples in the Flora do Brasil! http://floradobrasil.jbrj.gov....
You got it Janet!
I had thought it was decorative enough to be cultivated as a houseplant..the photos in our database must be cultivars..
thanks for the link, Lin.
I came across one similar while search for vines in the Atlantic rainforest Myriam, I was looking for your fruiting vine. I looked at the others in the same family, presto!
