- Mondia_whitei abstract "Mondia whitei (Hook.f.) Skeels is a vigorous, perennial, widespread Sub-Saharan herbaceous climber growing in the altitude range 1000 - 1500 m, belonging to the family Apocynaceae, and as with most members of this family, having milky latex. Two species are recognised, the other being Mondia ecornuta (N.E. Br.) Bullock. Widely known in Africa as 'gondolosi', the rootstock is often collected for medicinal use. In Kenya it is heavily collected, and as the roots are dug up the plant is thereby destroyed. Some initiatives propagate the species to supply the commercial demand and attempt to re-establish the species in the wild. Plants may be found in woodland and forest habitats, and even in swampy grassland. It is not frost-hardy, preferring tropical and subtropical habitats. With older stems becoming woody, it grows from a tuberous rootstock which has a ginger or liquorice taste and an aroma reminiscent of vanilla. The opposite leaves are large (100–300 x 50–150 mm) with a cordate base and 30–55 mm long petioles which, with the lower-surface veins, are often reddish-purple. The false stipules are large and fimbriaceous. The inflorescence is axillary and branched, flowers are short-lived, lasting some 3–4 days. Petals are reddish-purple, ± 14 mm long and with a green edge. The flowers are unusually large for the subfamily Periplocoideae, and have a malodorous fruity scent which grows as the day progresses. The paired large fruits or follicles (75–100 x 44 mm) are semi-woody with a velvety surface.Mondia is from the Zulu word for the plant, 'umondi'. The species commemorates A.S. White, a South African farmer, who sent specimens to Kew through John Croumbie Brown, Colonial Botanist at the Cape, from where Joseph Dalton Hooker found it to be a new species.".
