I am usually a tree or a shrub. My
leaves are simple, alternate, and
stipulate. My five petals are clawed
and my flowers are cup-shaped and
with a well-developed hypanthium. I
also have a intrastaminal nectar disk
and my stamens are epipetalous.
12
Rhamnaceae
13
I’m a tree with leaves in a terminal
cluster on my usually unbranched
trunk. My leaves are long-petioled
with a large basal sheath and lateral
spines. They are either feathershaped and pinnately divided or fanshaped and palmately divided with
the divisions plicate. My
inflorescence is paniculate or
compound-spicate.
14
Arecaceae
15
I could be a rhizomatous herb to a
tree with a large, woody caudex.
My leaves are usually alternate and
spiral along the stem or in a basal
rosette. My flowers are usually
small with 6 tepals often connate
with a bell-shaped perianth. I have
6 stamens and the filaments are
often adnate to tepals. My seeds
lack a phytomelan crust.
16
Ruscaceae
17
My herbage is in a dense rosette of more or
less succulent sessile leaves with sheathing
and overlapping leaf bases. My leaves have
terminal and lateral spines or filaments. My
inflorescence can be spike-like to paniculate,
terminal, or cymose. My flowers have 6 tepals
in two series and are typically thick and
yellow or white. Stamens are in two series of
3 and basally adnate to the perianth. My seeds
have a phytomelan crust.
18
Agavaceae
19
I’m an herb and often a epiphyte or a
saptrophyte. My growth is from creeping
rhizomes, pseudobulbs, tubers, or aerial
roots. I have basal leaves that are often 2ranked, sheathing, and sessile. In some
genus my leaves are reduced to sheathing
scales and lack chlorophyll. My flowers
are perfect and zygomorphic with a
perianth in 2 whorls. I have a labellum
and one stamen that is adnate to the style
and stigma to form a column.
