Shrubby plants climbing by lf.-tendrils, but known in cult. as herbs: lvs. alternate, pinnate: calyx large, 5-parted; corolla bell-shaped, the limb 5-lobed: caps. 3-valved, angled: fls. solitary on long peduncles, bracted at the base.—A genus of about 10 Trop. American climbers (monographed by Brand in Engler's Pflanzenreich, hft. 27, 1907), of which C. scandens, a tender perennial plant, is amongst the dozen most popular vines commonly treated as annuals.
