The Geranium Family, Geraniaceae, and the Mallow Family, Malvaceae
THE GERANIUM FAMILY, GERANIACEAE, AND THE MALLOW FAMILY, MALVACEAE TWO SOMETIMES CONFUSED FAMILIES PROMINENT IN SOME MEDITERRANEAN CLIMATE AREAS The Geraniaceae is a family of herbaceous plants or small shrubs, sometimes with succulent stems • The family is noted for its often palmately veined and lobed leaves, although some also have pinnately divided leaves • The leaves all have pairs of stipules at their base • The flowers may be regular and symmetrical or somewhat irregular • The floral plan is 5 separate sepals and petals, 5 or 10 stamens, and a superior ovary • The most distinctive feature is the beak of fused styles on top of the ovary Here you see a typical geranium flower This nonnative weedy geranium shows the styles forming a beak The geranium family is also noted for its seed dispersal • The styles either actively eject the seeds from each compartment of the ovary or… • They twist and embed themselves in clothing and fur to hitch a ride • The Geraniaceae is prominent in the Mediterranean Basin and the Cape Province of South Africa • It is also found in California but few species here are drought tolerant • California does have several introduced weedy members Here you see a geranium flinging the seeds from sections of the ovary when the styles curl up Three genera typify the Geraniaceae: Erodium, Geranium, and Pelargonium • Erodiums (common name filaree or clocks) typically have pinnately veined, sometimes dissected leaves; many species are weeds in California • Geraniums (that is, the true geraniums) typically have palmately veined leaves and perfectly symmetrical flowers. Most are herbaceous annuals or perennials • Pelargoniums (the so-called garden geraniums or storksbills) have asymmetrical flowers and range from perennials to succulents to shrubs The weedy filaree, Erodium cicutarium, produces small pink-purple flowers in California’s spring grasslands Here are the beaked unripe fruits of filaree Many of the perennial erodiums from the Mediterranean make well-behaved ground covers for California gardens Here are the flowers of the charming E.

Pachira Aquatica, (Zapotón, Pumpo)
How to Grow a Sacred Maya Flower Pachira aquatica, (Zapotón, Pumpo) Nicholas Hellmuth 1 Introduction: There are several thousand species of flowering plants in Guatemala. Actually there are several thousand flowering TREES in Guatemala. If you count all the bushes, shrubs, and vines, you add thousands more. Then count the grasses, water plants; that’s a lot of flowers to look at. Actually, if you count the orchids in Guatemala you would run out of numbers! Yet out of these “zillions” of beautiful tropical flowers, the Classic Maya, for thousands of years, picture less than 30 different species. It would be a challenge to find representations of a significant number of orchids in Maya art: strange, since they are beautiful, and there are orchids throughout the Maya homeland as well as in the Olmec homeland, plus orchids are common in the Izapa area of proto_Maya habitation in Chiapas. Yet other flowers are pictured in Maya yart, yet in the first 150 years of Maya studies, only one single solitary flower species was focused on: the sacred water lily flower! (I know this focus well, I wrote my PhD dissertation featuring this water lily). But already already 47 years ago, I had noticed flowers on Maya vases: there were several vases that I discovered myself in a royal burial at Tikal that pictured stylized 4-petaled flowers (Burial 196, the Tomb of the Jade Jaguar). Still, if you have XY-thousand flowers blooming around you, why did the Maya picture less than 30? In other words, why did the Maya select the water lily as their #1 flower? I know most of the reasons, but the point is, the Maya had XY-thousand.

Sida Rhombifolia
Sida rhombifolia Arrowleaf sida, Cuba jute Sida rhombifolia L. Family: Malvaceae Description: Small, perennial, erect shrub, to 5 ft, few hairs, stems tough. Leaves alternate, of variable shapes, rhomboid (diamond-shaped) to oblong, 2.4 inches long, margins serrate except entire toward the base. Flowers solitary at leaf axils, in clusters at end of branches, yel- low to yellowish orange, often red at the base of the petals, 0.33 inches diameter, flower stalk slender, to 1.5 inches long. Fruit a cheesewheel (schizocarp) of 8–12 segments with brown dormant seeds. A pantropical weed, widespread throughout Hawai‘i in disturbed areas. Pos- sibly indigenous. Used as fiber source and as a medici- nal in some parts of the world. [A couple of other weedy species of Sida are common in Hawai‘i. As each spe- cies tends to be variable in appearance (polymorphic), while at the same time similar in gross appearance, they are difficult to tell apart. S. acuta N.L. Burm., syn. S.

Native to tropical America, naturalized bases unequal (asymmetrical), margins serrated to near before 1871(70). the leaf base; flowers white to yellow, 2–8 in the leaf axils, flower stalks to 0.15 inches long; fruit a cheese- Environmental impact: Infests mesic to wet pas- wheel with 5 segments.

Circular letters are available on the Codex webpage/Circular Letters: http://www.fao.org/fao-who-codexalimentarius/resources/circular-letters/en BACKGROUND 1. Background on the discussion of the revision of the Classification of Food and Feed (CXM 4-1989) can be found in the reports of the 36th – 49th sessions of the Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR) including relevant sessions of the Codex Alimentarius (CAC) held from 2004 to 2017.1 2. The practice adopted by the Committee in the revision of the Classification is to retain the revision of the commodity groups (e.g. fruit commodity groups, vegetable commodity groups, etc.) awaiting final compilation of the related commodity groups and the corresponding tables on examples of representative commodities for inclusion in the Classification of Food and Feed and the Principles and Guidance on the Selection of Representative Commodities for the Extrapolation of Maximum Residue Limits for Pesticides to Commodity Groups (CXG 84-2012) respectively.

Flora of China 12: 280–282. 2007. 12. URENA Linnaeus, Sp. Pl. 2: 692. 1753. 梵天花属 fan tian hua shu Herbs perennial or shrubs, stellate. Leaves alternate; leaf blade orbicular or ovate, palmately lobed or sinuate, with 1 or more prominent foliar nectaries on abaxial surface. Flowers solitary or nearly fascicled, rarely racemelike, axillary or rarely aggregated on twig tips. Epicalyx campanulate, 5-lobed. Calyx 5-parted. Petals 5, stellate puberulent abaxially. Staminal column truncate or slightly incised; anthers numerous, on outside of staminal column only, nearly sessile. Ovary 5-loculed; ovule 1 per locule; style branches 10, reflexed; stigma discoid, apically ciliate. Fruit a schizocarp, subglobose; mericarps 5, ovoid, usually with spines, these each with a cluster of short barbs at tips. Seed 1, obovoid-trigonous or reniform, glabrous. About six species: in tropical and subtropical regions; three species (one endemic) in China. Some authorities have restricted Urena to the taxa with barb-tipped setae, sometimes treating these as a single, very variable, pantropical species, and placed other species, including U. repanda, in Pavonia. Some species of Triumfetta (Tiliaceae s.l.) are superficially rather similar and have been confused with this genus. 1a.
