Chaenomeles
''Chaenomeles'' is a genus of four species of deciduous spiny shrubs, usually 1–3 m tall, in the family (biology), family Rosaceae. They are native plant, native to Eastern Asia. These plants are related to the quince (''Cydonia oblonga'') and the Chinese quince (''Pseudocydonia sinensis''), differing in the serrated Leaf, leaves that lack fuzz, and in the flowers, borne in clusters, having deciduous sepals and Style (botany), styles that are connate at the base. The leaves are alternately arranged, simple, and have a serrated margin. The flowers are 3–4.5 cm diameter, with five petals, and are usually bright orange-red, but can be white or pink; flowering is in late winter or early spring. The fruit is a pome with five carpels; it ripens in late autumn. ''Chaenomeles'' is used as a food plant by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including the brown-tail and the leaf-miner ''Bucculatricidae, Bucculatrix pomifoliella''. Common names Although all quince species ...

Fritillaria
''Fritillaria'' (fritillaries) is a genus of spring flowering herbaceous bulbous perennial plants in the lily family (biology), family (Liliaceae). The type species, ''Fritillaria meleagris'', was first described in Europe in 1571, while other species from the Middle East and Asia were also introduced species, introduced to Europe at that time. The genus has about 130–140 species divided among eight subgenera. The flowers are usually solitary, nodding and bell-shaped with bulbs that have fleshy scales, resembling those of lilies.

Japonica Rice
Japonica rice (''Oryza sativa'' subsp. ''japonica''), sometimes called sinica rice, is one of the two major domestic types of Asian rice varieties. Japonica rice is extensively cultivated and consumed in East Asia and Italy, whereas in most other regions indica rice is the dominant type of rice. Japonica rice originated from Central China, where it was first domesticated along the Yangtze River basin approximately 9,500 to 6,000 years ago. Classification The subspecies ''japonica'' can be classified into three subgroups, 'temperate japonica', 'tropical japonica' (obsolete designations: 'javanica'; ), and 'aromatic'. Temperate japonica is cultivated in East Asia (China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam), while tropical japonica is in Indonesia, Madagascar, and also the Americas where it was brought to with slave trade.
