Hexastylis Speciosa
''Hexastylis'' or heartleaf is a segregate of the genus ''Asarum'', in the family Aristolochiaceae. The group comprises ten species endemic to southeastern North America. It is a perennial, evergreen, herbaceous plant with leaves and flowers arising directly from the rhizomes. Hexastylis was once recognized at the level of genus, and in some floral treatments still is, yet it has been shown through morphological and molecular evidence that it is rooted within the genus ''Asarum''. Species There are eighteen species of ''Hexastylis'': * ''Hexastylis arifolia'' * ''Hexastylis callifolia'' * ''Hexastylis chueyi'' * ''Hexastylis contracta'' * ''Hexastylis finzelii'' * ''Hexastylis harperi'' * ''Hexastylis heterophylla'' * ''Hexastylis lewisii'' * ''Hexastylis minor'' * ''Hexastylis naniflora'' * ''Hexastylis rhombiformis'' * ''Hexastylis rollinsiae'' * ''Hexastylis rosei'' * ''Hexastylis ruthii ''Hexastylis'' or heartleaf is a segregate of the genus '' Asarum'', in the famil ...

Leaf
A leaf ( : leaves) is any of the principal appendages of a vascular plant stem, usually borne laterally aboveground and specialized for photosynthesis. Leaves are collectively called foliage, as in "autumn foliage", while the leaves, stem, flower, and fruit collectively form the shoot system. In most leaves, the primary photosynthetic tissue is the palisade mesophyll and is located on the upper side of the blade or lamina of the leaf but in some species, including the mature foliage of ''Eucalyptus'', palisade mesophyll is present on both sides and the leaves are said to be isobilateral. Most leaves are flattened and have distinct upper (adaxial) and lower ( abaxial) surfaces that differ in color, hairiness, the number of stomata (pores that intake and output gases), the amount and structure of epicuticular wax and other features. Leaves are mostly green in color due to the presence of a compound called chlorophyll that is essential for photosynthesis as it absorbs light ...

Hexastylis Rhombiformis
''Hexastylis rhombiformis'', the North Fork heartleaf or French Broad heartleaf, is a wildflower of the family Aristolochiaceae found in North Carolina and South Carolina in the United States. The population of this species discovered in 1982 included about 50 plants.

Hexastylis Finzelii
''Hexastylis finzelii'', or Finzel's wild ginger, is species of plant in the Aristolochiaceae native to northern Alabama. It is known from two populations in Marshall County. There are thought to only be around 1,000 individuals in the wild. The plant is named after Brian Finzel, a photographer who discovered the species in 2019. It was formally described by botanist Brian Keener in 2020. Description ''Hexastylis finzelii'' is visually similar to '' H. speciosa'' and '' H. arifolia'', with the shape of the flowers being the only defining feature. The flowers are difficult to see as they bloom beneath the leaf litter, which is thought to explain why the species went undiscovered for so long. It is hypothesized that they are pollinated by beetles. Distribution and habitat The species is only known to persist on Bishop Mountain in Alabama. It is found growing out of leaf litter in moist, hardwood forests. Soils are rocky and well-draining. The populations are protected as they ...
