Howea Howea is a genus of two palms, "H. belmoreana" and "H. forsteriana", both endemic to Lord Howe Island, Australia. "H. forsteriana" in particular is commonly grown as an indoor plant in the Northern Hemisphere, and the two species form the mainstay of the island's palm seed industry and more importantly its trade in newly germinated seedlings. The palms are also cultivated on Norfolk Island, where seeds are produced for export.

Forstera Forstera is a genus of small perennial plants in the Stylidiaceae family named in honour of the German naturalists Johann Reinhold Forster and his son, Georg Forster, who had previously described "Forstera"'s sister genus, "Phyllachne" just five years earlier. It comprises five species that are endemic to New Zealand with the exception of "F. bellidifolia", which is endemic to Tasmania. The species in this genus resemble those in a subgenus of the related genus "Stylidium" called "Forsteropsis", but they are more closely related to the genus "Phyllachne". Proposals to merge the two genera based on information from cladistic analysis have emerged because of these genera's morphological similarities and evidence that they are paraphyletic.

Sommieria Sommieria is a monotypic genus of flowering plant in the palm family endemic to New Guinea (Papua New Guinea and West Papua in Indonesia) where they grow in rain forest understory. They resemble the "Asterogyne" palms but are most closely related to those members of "Heterospathe" with short stems and sparsely branched inlforescences. The name honors Stephen Sommier, European botanist.

Melianthaceae The Melianthaceae are a family of flowering plants. The APG II system includes them within the rosid clade. All members of Melianthaceae proper are trees or shrubs found in tropical and southern Africa. Francoaceae (the Bridal wreaths) are sometimes included in the family, a family consisting of two monotypic genera found in Chile.

Hawaiian lobelioids The Hawaiian lobelioids are a group of flowering plants in the bellflower family, Campanulaceae, all of which are endemic to the Hawaiian Islands. This is the largest plant radiation in the Hawaiian Islands, and indeed the largest on any island archipelago, with over 125 species. The six genera can be broadly separated based on growth habit: "Clermontia" are typically branched shrubs or small trees, up to 7 m tall, with fleshy fruits; "Cyanea" and "Delissea" are typically unbranched or branching only at the base, with a cluster of relatively broad leaves at the apex and fleshy fruits; "Lobelia" and "Trematolobelia" have long thin leaves down a single, non-woody stem and capsular fruits with wind-dispersed seeds; and the peculiar "Brighamia" have a short, thick stem with a dense cluster of broad leaves, elongate white flowers, and capsular fruits.

Erica Erica is a genus of roughly 860 species of flowering plants in the family Ericaceae. The English common names "heath" and "heather" are shared by some closely related genera of similar appearance. The genus "Calluna" was formerly included in "Erica" – it differs in having even smaller scale-leaves (less than 2–3 mm long), and the flower corolla consisting of separate petals. "Erica" is sometimes referred to as "winter (or spring) heather" to distinguish it from "Calluna" "summer (or autumn) heather".

Vernonia Vernonia is a genus of about 1000 species of forbs and shrubs in the family Asteraceae. Some species are known as ironweed. Some species are edible and of economic value. They are known for having intense purple flowers. The genus is named for the English botanist William Vernon. There are numerous distinct subgenera and subsections in this genus. This has led some botanists to divide this large genus into several distinct genera. For instance, the "Flora of North America" only recognizes about 20 species in "Vernonia" sensu stricto, 17 of which are in North America north of Mexico, with the others being found in South America.

Nymphaea Nymphaea is a genus of hardy and tender aquatic plants in the family Nymphaeaceae. The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution. Many species are cultivated as ornamental plants, and many cultivars have been bred. Some taxa occur as introduced species where they are not native, and some are weeds. Plants of the genus are known commonly as water lilies. The genus name is from the Greek νυμφαια, "nymphaia" and the Latin "nymphaea", which mean "water lily" and were inspired by the nymphs of Greek and Latin mythology.
