Are Beaucarnea and Streptosolen both a genus of flowering plants?
Streptosolen Streptosolen is a genus of flowering plants with a single species, Streptosolen jamesonii, the marmalade bush. It is an evergreen shrub of the Solanaceae family that produces loose clusters of flowers gradually changing from yellow to red as they develop, resulting in an overall appearance resembling orange marmalade (thus the name), found in open woodlands of Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru.
Ascarina Ascarina is an ancient, woody, angiosperm genus. It is a distinct genus of "Chloranthaceae" consisting of less than twenty species, found in the Australian region, the Pacific Islands and Madagascar. They can grow up to six metres tall and have a spread of approximately three metres. "Ascarina" are usually tropical cloud forest species which need high humidity to thrive, and are vulnerable to both frost and drought. There has been discussion and research on whether or not this genus and its family are primitive, or have become reduced over time. Another controversial topic for the genus is its relation to the "Clavatipollenites", a fossilized pollen.
