What type of vegetation does Citharexylum and Cuminum have in common?
Citharexylum Citharexylum is a genus of flowering plants in the verbena family, Verbenaceae. It contains shrub and tree species commonly known as fiddlewoods or zitherwoods. They are native to the Americas, ranging from southern Florida and Texas in the United States to Argentina. The highest diversity occurs in Mexico and the Andes. The generic name is derived from the Greek words κιθάρα ("kithara"), meaning "lyre", and ξύλον ("xylon"), meaning "wood," referring to the use of the wood in the sounding boards of string instruments. Several species, especially "C. caudatum" and "C. spinosum", are cultivated as ornamentals.
Congea tomentosa Congea tomentosa is a large tropical evergreen vine, commonly referred to as Wooly Congea, Shower Orchid, or Shower of Orchid. (Despite the name, it is not closely related to orchids). It is called "lluvia de orquideas" or "terciopelo" in Spanish, "krua on" in Thai, and "rong bao teng" in Chinese. Native to Myanmar and Thailand, it can be found elsewhere in South Asia, including Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia (Kedah), China (Yunnan), Bangladesh, and India (Assam, Manipur, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal). Its native habitat is mixed forests 600–1200 meters above sea level.
