Kendrickia (personal commemorative name). Melastomaceae. A warmhouse root-climber from S. India and Ceylon, where the sts.

Species one, K. walkeri, Hook, f., offered abroad: lvs. opposite, fleshy, stalked, oblong or obovate, obtuse, about 1 ½ in. long, the margins glandular-hairy and the surface dotted white: fls. "tinging the forest red" when the plants ascend to the tops of the tallest trees, borne in few-fld. umbels or solitary; calyx rose- purple, urn-shaped; corolla bright red, the 4 fleshy petals about 1 in. long; stamens 8, equal, the anthers opening at the apex by a pore and somewhat produced or extended at the base: fr. a globose caps, opening by 4-6 valves at the apex.
