The purple jade vine is a specie endemic to the tropical forests of the Philippines. Also known as JC’s vine, the plant climbs and coils up forest canopies, usually in secondary growth forests, with flowers blooming in clusters, transforming from vibrant lilac to electric blue as the plant matures.
