  • Question

    This crawler with waxy thick three set spear leaves and assymetrical flowers found on an island on the equator above australia. Vey hot beach, no rainfall for three weeks we are in dry season, but this is juicy and flourishing. So many buds waiting to flower, at first i thought it was a morning glory, but the leaves spear out, and this flower is weird. What is it? The engine searches and plant identifier apps have limited data or maybe I am not explaining the characteristics properly.

    Answer

    Dear sylviasharee, I'm sorry that I cannot help with you plant. Australia is a long way from my region of expertise (northeastern United States). Go Botany is a website dedicated to wild plants of this region. If you need help finding someone closer to your area who could potentially help you, feel free to email me at ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org and I can send some contact information your way. Best wishes.
