A genus of three East Indian trees or tall climbers, with very large, white, fragrant, bell-shaped fls. in terminal cymes. The genus is more nearly allied to the familiar greenhouse shrub Trac7ielospe7'm^i7n jasminoides than to the splen- did tropical climbers in Allamanda and Dipladenia. B. grandiflora has been neglected of late, presumably because it needs somuchroom. It should beplantedout in the strong, fibrosis? loamy soil of a warm house, as it rarely succeeds in pots. It is best trained to the roof, as full light is necessary for flowering, if not for growth. The shoots may be thinned if the large Ivs. cast too much shade on the plants beneath. The wood should be w'ell ripened to produce an abundance of winter bloom. The fls. are produced on the growth of the previous season. After flowering, the plant should be severely pruned to produce lateral shoots for the next season's bloom. In its native country, this vine climbs over very tall trees. grandiJldra, Wall.
