Tristellateia australasiae, also known as maiden's jealousy, showers of gold climber and Australian gold vine,[1] is a climbing plant in the Malpighiaceae family that is native to Southeast Asia and northern Australia.[2]
It is a woody, liana that grows to a height of 10 metres where it is generally found in mangroves, creeks, swamps and forests.[2] It features opposite, pedunculate leaves with slightly papery leaf blades that are egg-shaped. Its yellow flowers, which occur all year round in warmer climates,[3] are 2-2.5 cm in width found on racemes that are 10-30 cm long, where each bunch contains around 30 flowers.[2]
