Aeschynanthus curvicalyx

Aeschynanthus curvicalyx is a Philippine endemic Aeschynanthus described by Mendum in 2001; as the name suggests, it is distinguished by a curved calyx. There are no georeferenced wild records, so its habitat and altitude are unknown. Grow it like other Philippine Aeschynanthus, as a humid, bright-shaded, fast-draining epiphyte.
