About Comesperma volubile Labill.
Comesperma volubile, commonly known as love creeper, is most often a twining creeper that grows to around 3 metres (9.8 feet) tall, and on rare occasions it grows as a small shrublet. It has smooth, angled stems, and bears only a small number of leaves. The leaves range from linear to oval-shaped, measuring 10–45 mm (0.39–1.77 in) long and 1.5–9 mm (0.059–0.354 in) wide; their lower surface is pale, and their margins are curved or rolled under. Flowers are borne in lateral racemes 3–25 cm (1.2–9.8 in) long. The sepals are distinct; the outer three sepals are broadly oval-shaped, about 2 mm (0.079 in) long, while the larger wing-like sepals range from oval-shaped to nearly round, 4–7 mm (0.16–0.28 in) long. The flower keel is darker in colour and 3.5–5 mm (0.14–0.20 in) long, and the upper petals range from egg-shaped to oblong. Flowering occurs mainly from August to November. The fruit is a narrow wedge-shaped capsule 12–20 mm (0.47–0.79 in) long. This species grows in heathland and forest, and is distributed across the Australian states of Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.
