Describe the plant here... {{Inc| Gymnopetalum (Greek, naked petal). Cucurbitaceae. Six species of tendril-bearing vines of tropical Asia and Java, of which one, G. cochinchinense, is cultivated chiefly for its ornamental gourds. This species is a tender perennial plant, and is said to have small white fls. borne in late summer and autumn, as advertised in the seed catalogues, under the name of Scotanthus tubiflorus. Scotanthus was formerly thought to be a closely allied genus, differing in the staminate fls. possessing bracts and 3 bristle-like rudiments of an ovary, while the staminate fls. of Gymnopetalum, by the old definition, have no bracts or minute ones, and but 1 rudiment of an ovary. Coigneaux includes Scotanthus in Gymnopetalum. }} ==Cultivation== <!--- Type cultivation info below this line, then delete this entire line --> ===Propagation=== <!--- Type propagation info below this line, then delete this entire line --> ===Pests and diseases=== <!--- Type pest/disease info below this line, then delete this entire line --> ==Species== <!-- This section should be renamed Cultivars if it appears on a page for a species (rather than genus), or perhaps Varieties if there is a mix of cultivars, species, hybrids, etc --> ==Gallery== {{photo-sources}}<!-- remove this line if there are already 3 or more photos in the gallery --> <gallery> Image:Upload.png| photo 1 Image:Upload.png| photo 2 Image:Upload.png| photo 3 </gallery> ==References== <!--- xxxxx *[[Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture]], by L.
