Eranthemum Eranthemum pulchellum ("Eranthemum nervosum", English: blue eranthemum, or blue sage) is a strongly branched shrub, popular with gardeners in tropical India and China because of the spikes of flowers that are bright gentian blue - an unusual color in the tropics. The flowers appear from green-and-white veined bracts that remain after the blooms fall, forming a column several inches long. The hairy leaves are large and dark green. A sprawling shrub which may reach a metre or more in height, "E. pulchellum" is usually kept lower and bushier through pruning. Light shade is preferred in a garden; in a greenhouse it needs warm conditions. It is easily propagated from cuttings. According to ITIS, "Eranthemum pulchellum" is the only species in the genus Eranthemum although The Plant List accepts 22 species.

Furtadoa Furtadoa is a genus of flowering plants in the Araceae family. It consists of only two species: "F. mixta" and "F. sumatrensis". The genus was described in 1981 by Mitsuru Hotta with one species endemic on Sumatra. In 1985 Hotta transferred a preexisting species of "Homalomena" (the West Malaysian "H. mixtum" Ridl.) to "Furtadoa". Both described species of "Furtadoa" have stems that creep, and root along their length (a very rare condition in related "Homalomena"), and leathery elliptical leaves. The inflorescence is carried on a long peduncle, with the spathes unconstricted, and either green, reddish brown, or purple-grey. The spadix is unique by having the male flowers (except for those at the tip of the spadix) each associated with a sterile female flower (a pistillode) in addition to each fertile female flower being associated with a sterile male flower (staminode).
