Description

Vegetative characteristics

The terrestrial, epiphytic and also felsbewohnenden species grow as perennial herbaceous plant with tuberous roots that can reach up to 40 centimeters in diameter. The 0.1 to 1.5 -meter-long and year-long upright shoots spring from the underground tuber and are usually unbranched. In the absence of tuber at the base of the shoots are very meaty. The stalked, elliptic or oblong leaves are pubescent to tomentose with a notched or serrated edge and are 0.1 to 6 inches long. You are decussate or in groups of three or lively or form a basal rosette.

Generative features

The lateral or terminal inflorescence bears 1 to 10 individual flowers per leaf axil. The more or less tomentose, horizontally projecting or rarely pendulous flowers have a 0.1 to 15 cm long peduncle, sometimes, however, he is missing. The bell-shaped and fünfzipfelige calyx consists of triangular or lanceolate segments. The tubed or trichterige to bell-shaped corolla is swollen on one side at the base and is 2 to 6 inches long. It is orange, red, pink or white in color. The fused at the base of the corolla stamens carry 4 stamens to two pairs. Reduced to nectar glands posterior disc is composed of two or bilobed or five separate glands. About the half under constant to superior ovaries sits just stylus. The scar is formed maul -shaped. The dry and more or less conical capsule fruits are rarely trained fleshy, pointed, zweiklappig and to 1 inches long. The narrow to broadly ellipsoidal seed is light brown in color and striped lengthwise and is very up to 1 millimeter.

Dissemination

The main distribution area of the genus are found in Brazil. However, some species are also found in northern Argentina, Peru, Venezuela and southern Mexico.
