Geraniales Genera
Geraniales is a small order of flowering plants, included within the rosid subclade of eudicots. The largest family in the order is Geraniaceae with over 800 species. In addition, the order includes the smaller Francoaceae with about 40 species. Most Geraniales are herbaceous, but there are also shrubs and small trees. Flower morphology of the Geraniales is rather conserved. They are usually perfectly pentamerous and pentacyclic without fused organs besides the carpels of the superior gynoecium. The androecium is obdiplostemonous. Only a few genera are tetramerous ('' Francoa, Tetilla, Melianthus''). In some genera some stamens (''Pelargonium'') or a complete whorl of stamens are reduced (''Erodium, Melianthus''). In the genera ''Hypseocharis'' and ''Monsonia'' there are 15 instead of the usual ten stamens. Most genera bear nectariferous flowers. The nectary glands are formed by the receptacle and are localised at the bases of the antesepalous stamens. The economic importance ...

The Francoaceae are recognized as a family under various classification schemes but under the APG III system the Francoaceae are included within the Melianthaceae. In the APG IV system the Francoaceae are again recognized as a family, with Melianthaceae included in the circumscription of Francoaceae. The Francoaceae are herbaceous perennials characterized by a basal aggregation of alternate petiolated leaves. The leaf blades (''lamina'') are either dissected, or entire. They are endemic to Chile.

Georg Fresenius
Johann Baptist Georg Wolfgang Fresenius (25 September 1808 – 1 December 1866) was a German physician and botanist, known for his work in the field of phycology. He was a native of Frankfurt am Main. He studied medicine at the Universities of Heidelberg, Würzburg and Giessen, earning his doctorate at the latter institution in 1829. Afterwards he settled in Frankfurt am Main, where he worked as a general practitioner of medicine while maintaining an active interest in botany. As a student in Heidelberg and afterwards, he studied botany with his friend George Engelmann (1809-1884), who later became a renowned German-American botanist. From 1831 Fresenius was curator of the Senckenberg herbarium and a teacher at the Senckenberg Research Institute (''Forschungsinstitut Senckenberg''). With his student Anton de Bary (1831–1888), he conducted microscopic investigations of algae and fungi. He died in Frankfurt on 1 December 1866 at the age of 58. The plant genus ''Fresenia'' fr ...
