Coleus Blumei Viroid 2
''Coleus'' (, ) is a genus of annual or perennial herbs or shrubs, sometimes succulent, sometimes with a fleshy or tuberous rootstock, found in the Afro-Eurasia tropics and subtropics. The relationship among the genera ''Coleus'', ''Solenostemon'' and ''Plectranthus'' has been confused. ''Coleus'' and ''Solenostemon'' were sunk into ''Plectranthus'', but recent phylogenetic analysis found ''Plectranthus'' to be paraphyletic with respect to other related genera in the subtribe Plectranthinae. The most recent taxonomic treatment of the genus resurrected ''Coleus'', and 212 names were changed from combinations in ''Plectranthus'', ''Pycnostachys'' and ''Anisochilus''. ''Equilabium'' was segregated from ''Plectranthus'', after phylogenetic studies supported its recognition as a phylogenetically distinct genus. Common names for ''Coleus'' include spurflower, flybush, hedgehog flower and hullwort. ''Coleus'' are cultivated as ornamental plants, particularly ''Coleus scutellarioides' ...

Coleus Amboinicus
''Coleus amboinicus'', synonym ''Plectranthus amboinicus'', is a semi-succulent perennial plant in the family Lamiaceae with a pungent oregano-like flavor and odor. ''Coleus amboinicus'' is considered to be native to parts of Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, and India, although it is widely cultivated and naturalized elsewhere in the tropics where it is used as a spice and ornamental plant. Common names in English include Indian borage, country borage, French thyme, Indian mint, Mexican mint, Cuban oregano, broad leaf thyme, soup mint, Spanish thyme. The species epithet, ''amboinicus'' refers to Ambon Island, in Indonesia, where it was apparently encountered and described by João de Loureiro (1717–1791).

Sensu
''Sensu'' is a Latin word meaning "in the sense of". It is used in a number of fields including biology, geology, linguistics, semiotics, and law. Commonly it refers to how strictly or loosely an expression is used in describing any particular concept, but it also appears in expressions that indicate the convention or context of the usage. Common qualifiers ''Sensu'' is the ablative case of the noun ''sensus'', here meaning "sense". It is often accompanied by an adjective (in the same case). Three such phrases are: * – "in the strict sense", abbreviation ''s.s.'' or ''s.str.''; * – "in the broad sense", abbreviation ''s.l.''; * – "in a relaxed, generous (or 'ample') sense", a similar meaning to ''sensu lato''. Søren Kierkegaard uses the phrase ''sensu eminenti'' to mean "in the pre-eminent r most important or significantsense". When appropriate, comparative and superlative adjectives may also be used to convey the meaning of "more" or "most". Thus ''sensu stricto'' ...

Coleus Cremnus
''Coleus cremnus'', Synonym (taxonomy), synonym ''Plectranthus cremnus'', is a rare herbaceous plant, herb only found in a few sites in the north coast of New South Wales. It occurs in shallow sandy soils in rocky coastal headlands such as Evans Head, New South Wales, Evans Head, Lennox Head, New South Wales, Lennox Head and Sawtell, New South Wales, Sawtell. The foliage is hairy with a pleasant geranium type scent. Purple tinged blue flowers occur at any time of the year. A few erect flowering branchlets rise from the usual low creeping form.

Coleus Comosus
''Coleus comosus'', synonym ''Plectranthus ornatus'', is a flowering plant from the mint family Lamiaceae The Lamiaceae ( ) or Labiatae are a family (biology), family of flowering plants commonly known as the mint, deadnettle, or sage family. Many of the plants are aromatic in all parts and include widely used culinary herbs like basil (herb), ba ..., native to eastern Africa (Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda). A plant sold under the name "''Coleus canina''" or "scaredy cat plant" is supposed to scare off cats and dogs. An attempt to register "''Coleus canina''" to receive plant variety protection failed as it was considered to be only a clone of ''Coleus comosus''. References comosus {{Lamiaceae-stub ...

Coleus Cataractarum
''Coleus cataractarum'', synonym ''Plectranthus cataractarum'', is a species of flowering plant in the family Lamiaceae. It is found in Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers, near waterfalls. It is threatened by habitat loss Habitat destruction (also termed habitat loss or habitat reduction) occurs when a natural habitat is no longer able to support its native species. The organisms once living there have either moved elsewhere, or are dead, leading to a decrease ....

Coleus Caninus
''Coleus caninus'', synonym ''Plectranthus caninus'', also called dogbane, piss-off plant and scaredy-cat plant, is a herb from the mint family Lamiaceae, native to southern and eastern Africa from Angola to Sudan and to India and Myanmar. Description It is a perennial herb covered in small hairs that features narrow, obovate leaves that are approximately 3-4 cm long and 2-4 cm wide, with semi-erect branches. The pale blue-purple flowers have a succulent and tubular appearance, where the petals then open on the tall inflorescence spike. Both the leaves and flowers of the plant are sticky to the touch and have an odor similar to Eucalyptus that some animals find unpleasant, deterring both insect infection and grazing by larger animals. Distribution It is native to southern and eastern Africa and South Asia: Angola, Botswana, Burundi, DR Congo, Eritrea, Ethiopia, India, Kenya, Myanmar, Namibia, Northern Provinces, Rwanda, Somalia, Sudan-South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, Z ...

Coleus Argentatus
''Coleus argentatus'', synonym ''Plectranthus argentatus'', common name silver spurflower, is a species of flowering plant in the mint family.

Cultivation ''Coleus argentatus'' is cultivated in temperate regions as an ornamental bedding plant for its attractive silvery foliage. It strikes readily from cuttings, or can be grown from seed as a half-hardy annual. It has gained the Royal Hortic ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Plants Of The World Online
Plants of the World Online (POWO) is an online taxonomic database published by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. History Following the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew launched Plants of the World Online in March 2017 with the goal of creating an exhaustive online database of all seed-bearing plants worldwide. (Govaerts wrongly speaks of "Convention for Botanical Diversity (CBD)). The initial focus was on tropical African flora, particularly flora ''Zambesiaca'', flora of West and East Tropical Africa. Since March 2024, the website has displayed AI-generated predictions of the extinction risk for each plant. Description The database uses the same taxonomical source as the International Plant Names Index, which is the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP). The database contains information on the world's flora gathered from 250 years of botanical research. It aims to make available data from projects that no longer have an online ...

''Capitanopsis'' was a sister of the newly established genus '' Equilabium''. Species Paton et al. (2018) recognize six species: * '' Capitanopsis albida'' (Baker) Hedge * '' Capitanopsis angustifolia'' (Moldenke) Capuron * '' Capitanopsis brevilabra'' (H ...
