Graptophyllum (Greek words referring to the variegated foliage). Acanthaceae. Tender shrubs, one of which is cultivated in a very few American conservatories for its variegated foliage, and is said to be very popular in India and the tropics.
Leaves opposite, entire (in one species spiny-dentate), often colored: fls. reddish purple, wide gaping, clustered either in a terminal thryse or in the axils; calyx divided to the base into 5 segms.; corolla-tube inflated above; upper lip with 2 short recurved lobes; lower lip 3-cut; stamens 2: fr. a club-shaped or oblong caps. About 5 species, oriental. No two lvs. are marked exactly alike, but the yellow color is near the midrib rather than at the margins. The genus is close to Thyrsacanthus, but in Thyrsacanthus the fls. are not so distinctly 2-lipped. For cult., see Justicia.
