Glossy green leaves and faintly sweet scented flower. Flowers continuously all year. Frost tolerant. Grows to about 2 metres. Likes full sun to part shade. A number of cultivars are available.
Chemical composition
Multiple compounds of different classes such as Iboga alkaloids and Bisindole alkaloids have been isolated from this plant. Alkaloids such as conodusine A-E, conolodinines A-D, conophylline , conophyllinine and taberyunines A-I are present in which many shows antiproliferative and cytotoxic actions.[ 3] [ 4] [ 5] [ 6]
