Malvaceae
Malvaceae, or the mallows, is a family of flowering plants estimated to contain 244 genera with 4225 known species. Well-known members of economic importance include okra, cotton, cacao and durian. There are also some genera containing familiar ornamentals, such as ''Alcea'' (hollyhock), ''Malva'' (mallow), and ''Tilia'' (lime or linden tree). The largest genera in terms of number of species include ''Hibiscus'' (300 species), ''Sterculia'' (250 species), ''Dombeya'' (250 species), '' Pavonia'' (200 species) and '' Sida'' (200 species). Taxonomy and nomenclature The circumscription of the Malvaceae is controversial. The traditional Malvaceae '' sensu stricto'' comprise a very homogeneous and cladistically monophyletic group. Another major circumscription, Malvaceae ''sensu lato'', has been more recently defined on the basis that genetics studies have shown the commonly recognised families Bombacaceae, Tiliaceae, and Sterculiaceae, which have always been considered closely allie ...

Plants Of The World Online
Plants of the World Online (POWO) is an online database published by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. It was launched in March 2017 with the ultimate aim being "to enable users to access information on all the world's known seed-bearing plants by 2020". The initial focus was on tropical African Floras, particularly Flora Zambesiaca, Flora of West Tropical Africa and Flora of Tropical East Africa. The database uses the same taxonomical source as Kew's World Checklist of Selected Plant Families, which is the International Plant Names Index, and the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP). POWO contains 1,234,000 global plant names and 367,600 images. See also *Australian Plant Name Index *Convention on Biological Diversity *World Flora Online *Tropicos Tropicos is an online botanical database containing taxonomic information on plants, mainly from the Neotropical realm (Central, and South America). It is maintained by the Missouri Botanical Garden and was established over 25 y ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sparrmannia Africana
''Sparrmannia africana'', the African hemp or African linden, is a species of flowering plant in the mallow family (biology), family Malvaceae, native plant, native to open woodland in South Africa and Madagascar. It is one of up to seven species in the genus ''Sparrmannia''. The genus name is after Anders Sparrman. Growing to tall by broad, ''S. africana'' is an evergreen shrub or small tree with large pale green leaves long and clusters of white flowers with red and yellow stamens. It is not closely related to the true hemp, cannabis. ''Sparrmannia'' species are known for their nastic movement, haptonasty, rapid movements made by the stamens when they are touched. This adaptation helps in more effective pollination. With a minimum temperature of , ''Sparrmannia africana'' is grown as a houseplant in temperate climates. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. The name ''Sparmannia acerifolia'' hort. ex Steud., with a mis-spelled generic name ...
