{{Inc| Artabotrys hamatus, Blume (A. odoratissimus, Hook. f. & Thomson). A large scrambling shrub with elongate sar- mentose glabrous branches: Lvs. oblong-lanceolate, obtusely acuminate, acute at the base, 2-4 in. long by 1-1½ in. broad, coriaceous, glabrous, delicately veined on both surfaces: hooked peduncles flattened, glabrous, spirally curved, several-fld. but usually all but one of the fls. abortive; pedicel curved, clothed with short pubescence and bearing at the base a sessile ovate caducous bracteole; fls. yellowish ferrugineous; calyx minute, subtomentose, deciduous, deeply 3-parted, the divisions broadly ovate-acute, spreading and reflexed; outer and inner petals of equal length, 1 in. long, linear-lanceolate, obtusely acuminate, thickish, tomentose, excavated and constricted at the base, conniving over the essential parts and almost concealing them, the limb, above the constriction, curving somewhat inward, with a raised median line along the back and a groove within, the outer petals somewhat broader than the inner; receptacle plano-convex, clothed with minute hairs; stamens numerous, thick, club-shaped, obtuse, the connective swollen and rounded above the pollen-sacs; ovaries few, about 6-8, linear-oblong, glabrous, tapering upward into the terete style; mature hardened receptacle bearing 3-5 fruiting carpels 2-2½ in. long and 1 in. diam., tapering toward both ends, obtusely acuminate, rather smooth, marked with longitudinal lines within from the base to the apex and spotted with greenish and white, at length turning red; seeds 2, erect, side by side, oval, with a hard bony pericarp surrounded by a marginal groove, and a large ruminate albumen. Java, common at the base of high rats.— Widely diffused in India and Ceylon, and planted for the sake of its fragrant fls., often scrambling over garden walls. Closely allied to this species is Artabotrys intermedium, Hassk., which grows in the botanical gardens of Buitenzorg, on the island of Java. Its calyx is described as silky within, its petals as green and covered with fine tomentum, the exterior ones a little broader and longer than the inner (an inch long), and ovate-lanceolate in shape, and the ripe carpels obovoid and acutish. }} ==Cultivation== ===Propagation=== ===Pests and diseases=== ==Varieties== ==Gallery== <gallery perrow=5> Image:Upload.png| photo 1 Image:Upload.png| photo 2 Image:Upload.png| photo 3 </gallery> ==References== <references/> *[[Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture]], by L.
