Habitat
The above description is of the var. ochracea. The var. curtissii (House) Stearn, a much stouter plant, comes from Uganda and is apparently naturalised in central America and the Caribbean (see Verdcourt 1963a: 116). The typical variety is distinguished by being a perennial herb with bright yellow flowers with a dark throat, arranged in cymes.
