In between Asparagus and Meconopsis which one was first described by French botanist Viguier in 1814?
Meconopsis Meconopsis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Papaveraceae. It was first described by French botanist Viguier in 1814 who named it as poppy-like (from Greek "mekon" poppy, "opsis" alike). The species have attractive flowers and have two distinct ranges. A single species, "Meconopsis cambrica" (Welsh poppy), is indigenous to England, Wales, Ireland, and the fringes of Western Europe, although recent studies suggest that it does not belong in the genus. The other 40 or so (depending on classification) species are found in the Himalayas. Within the Himalayan types there is much debate as to what constitutes a particular species as many readily hybridise with each other and produce viable seed. It is likely that some individually named species are in fact a single species but with an under-appreciated morphological diversity.
Malpighia Malpighia is a genus of flowering plants in the nance family, Malpighiaceae. It contains about 45 species of shrubs or small trees, all of which are native to the American tropics. The generic name honours Marcello Malpighi, a 17th-century Italian physician and botanist. The species grow to 1 - tall, with a dense, often thorny crown. The leaves are evergreen, simple, 0.5 - long, with an entire or serrated margin. The flowers are solitary or in umbels of two to several together, each flower 1 - diameter, with five white, pink, red, or purple petals. The fruit is a red, orange or purple drupe, containing 2-3 hard seeds. "M. emarginata" is cultivated for its sweet and juicy fruits, which are very rich in vitamin C.
