About Secamone elliptica R.Br.
Secamone elliptica R.Br., commonly called corky milk vine, cork vine, or secamone, is a species of vines or lianas belonging to the plant family Apocynaceae. Its native range stretches from southern China through most of Southeast Asia to Northern Australia. In Australia, its distribution covers The Kimberley, across The Top End, and along the East coast from Cape York to northern New South Wales. It naturally grows in monsoon forest and littoral rainforest, and it can occasionally be found in more open forest types. This species is identified by its opposite leaves and milky sap that flows out when stems or leaves are broken. It produces small cream or yellow flowers during the spring and summer seasons.
