Lobostemon Fruticosus 1DS-II 2-1492
''Lobostemon'' is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Boraginaceae. Its native range is South Africa. The majority of species are limited to the winter rainfall area of the country, from Springbok to Mossel Bay. In Afrikaans these species are known as ''agtdaegeneesbos'', or loosely translated, bush that will heal in eight days. As this name suggests, many species have medicinal properties. This is best known from ''Lobostemon fruticosus'', which is used for treating wounds, blood poisoning, ringworm, skin diseases and syphilis. Taxonomy This genus belongs to the forget-me-not family, Boraginaceae. It is closely relaated to the European genus '' Echium'' but differs by the presence of staminal scales in ''Lobostemon.'' The genus name is derived from Latin ''lobos,'' meaning lobe, and the Greek word ''stemon,'' meaning stamen.

Stamen
The stamen (plural ''stamina'' or ''stamens'') is the pollen-producing reproductive organ of a flower. Collectively the stamens form the androecium., p. 10 Morphology and terminology A stamen typically consists of a stalk called the filament and an anther which contains ''sporangium, microsporangia''. Most commonly anthers are two-lobed and are attached to the filament either at the base or in the middle area of the anther. The sterile tissue between the lobes is called the connective, an extension of the filament containing conducting strands. It can be seen as an extension on the dorsal side of the anther. A pollen grain develops from a microspore in the microsporangium and contains the male gametophyte. The stamens in a flower are collectively called the androecium. The androecium can consist of as few as one-half stamen (i.e. a single locule) as in ''Canna (plant), Canna'' species or as many as 3,482 stamens which have been counted in the saguaro (''Carnegiea gigantea'' ...
