Galphimia
''Galphimia'' is a genus in the Malpighiaceae, a family of about 75 genera of flowering plants in the order Malpighiales; the name is an anagram of ''Malpighia.'' ''Galphimia'' comprises 26 species of large herbs, shrubs, and treelets. Twenty-two species occur in Mexico, one ('' G. angustifolia'') extending into Texas and one ('' G. speciosa'') ranging to Nicaragua; four species ('' G. amambayensis'', '' G. australis'', ''G. brasiliensis'', '' G. platyphylla'') occur in South America, south of the Amazon Basin. ''Galphimia gracilis'' is widely cultivated in warm regions throughout the world (but often confused with '' G. glauca'' and also ''G. brasiliensis''). Eight species (of Mexico and Central America) are distinctive in that the petals become stiff and papery, and persist past the stage of fruit maturation. ''Galphimia'' is sometimes confused with ''Thryallis'', a different genus of Malpighiaceae that occurs in Brazil and adjacent Paraguay and Bolivia. At one time some species ...

Galphimia Gracilis
''Galphimia gracilis'', a species in the genus '' Galphimia'' of the family Malpighiaceae, is native to eastern Mexico. It is widely cultivated in warm regions throughout the world, often under the common names gold shower or shower-of-gold, slender goldshower or sometimes thryallis. In horticultural publications, in the nursery trade, and on websites, this species is commonly but mistakenly referred to as '' Galphimia glauca'', '' Galphimia brasiliensis'', ''Thryallis glauca'', ''Thryallis gracilis'', or often in South America, ''Thryallis brasiliensis''. ''Galphimia gracilis'' is easily told apart from the true ''G. glauca'' and ''G. brasiliensis'' by the flowers. In ''G. gracilis'' the petals fall as the fruit matures; in ''G. glauca'' the petals are persistent even in fruit. In ''G. gracilis'' many flowers of a dense inflorescence An inflorescence is a group or cluster of flowers arranged on a Plant stem, stem that is composed of a main branch or a complicated arrangem ...

Galphimia Glauca
''Galphimia glauca'', also known as rain of gold, golden showers, thryallis and shower of gold, is a flowering shrub in the Malpighiaceae family that is native to Central America. Description It is an evergreen, erect shrub with branched taproot system that reaches a height of up to 1.8 to 3 metres. The alternate leaves are ovate or elongate, green above and bluish green below which may become bronze coloured during the cold. The sweet-scented flowers are yellow in color, 2 cm in size, with 5 petals and sepals, and are produced in flowery racemes. The plant can bloom in cycles all year round in the right conditions and under full sun, but mostly from early spring to the first frost.Galphimia glauca CAV.

Thryallis
''Thryallis'' is a genus in the family Malpighiaceae, of scandent shrubs and woody vines native to Brazil and adjacent Paraguay and Bolivia. At one time some species now assigned to '' Galphimia'', e.g., ''Galphimia gracilis'', were referred to ''Thryallis'', but the generic name ''Thryallis'' is now a conserved name according to the rules of the rules of Botanical Nomenclature Botanical nomenclature is the formal, scientific naming of plants. It is related to, but distinct from Alpha taxonomy, taxonomy. Plant taxonomy is concerned with grouping and classifying plants; botanical nomenclature then provides names for the ....

Malpighiaceae
Malpighiaceae is a family of flowering plants in the order Malpighiales. It comprises about 73 genera and 1315 species, all of which are native to the tropics and subtropics. About 80% of the genera and 90% of the species occur in the New World (the Caribbean and the southernmost United States to Argentina) and the rest in the Old World (Africa, Madagascar, and Indomalaya to New Caledonia and the Philippines). One useful species in the family is '' Malpighia emarginata'', often called acerola. The fruit is consumed in areas where the plant is native. The plant is cultivated elsewhere for the fruit, which is rich in vitamin C. Another member of the family, caapi or yagé (''Banisteriopsis caapi''), is used in the entheogenic brew known as ayahuasca. One feature found in several members of this family, and rarely in others, is providing pollinators with rewards other than pollen or nectar; this is commonly in the form of nutrient oils (resins are offered by Clusiaceae).
