Platydesma Platydesma is a genus of plants in family Rutaceae. Evidence from 2009 indicates that "Platydesma" is nested within the related genus "Melicope" and is sister to all Hawaiian "Melicope" species. And while "Melicope" species are dioecious (individual plants only bear either male or female flowers), the flowers of "Platydesma" are hermaphroditic, suggesting a rare evolutionary reversion away from dioecy in "Platydesma". While they have no medicinal purposes; the board of water supply states that they can be used for a shrub.

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.
