Marcgravia umbellata about 15 leaves

Marcgravia umbellata, also called monkey paws, is a species of flowering vine in the family Marcgraviaceae. It is native to the Lesser Antilles islands, eastern Caribbean. Marcgravia umbellata was the first member of the marcgraviaceae family to be described in modern botanical literature.

The Caribbean is home to the species Marcgravia umbellata. Little, deep green foliage and lovely white patterns give this Marcgravia a lovely, compact appearance. These vines will exhibit significant degrees of phototropism while establishing roots and will prefer lesser light. They enjoy moderate to high levels of humidity but dislike having water sitting on their leaves.
