Fructification Fructification (Latin: "fructificatio" ) are the generative parts of the plant (flower and fruit) (as opposed to its vegetative parts: trunk, roots and leaves). Sometimes it is applied more broadly to the generative parts of gymnosperms, ferns, horsetails, and lycophytes, though they produce neither fruit nor flower.

Ranunculidae Ranunculidae is a subclass of plants used in some taxonomic systems and not others. By necessity it includes the order Ranunculales, but otherwise it differs between taxonomic systems.

Frond A frond is a large, divided leaf. In both common usage and botanical nomenclature, the leaves of ferns are referred to as fronds and some botanists restrict the term to this group. Other botanists allow the term frond to also apply to the large leaves of cycads and palms (Arecaceae). "Frond" is commonly used to identify a large, compound leaf, but if the term is used botanically to refer to the leaves of ferns, it may be applied to smaller and undivided leaves.

Cyatheales The order Cyatheales, which includes the tree ferns, is a taxonomic division of the fern class, Polypodiopsida. No clear morphological features characterize all of the Cyatheales, but DNA sequence data indicate the order is monophyletic. Some species in the Cyatheales have tree-like growth forms, but others have rhizomes.

Cucurbitales The Cucurbitales are an order of flowering plants, included in the rosid group of dicotyledons. This order mostly belongs to tropical areas, with limited presence in subtropic and temperate regions. The order includes shrubs and trees, together with many herbs and climbers. One major characteristic of the Cucurbitales is the presence of unisexual flowers, mostly pentacyclic, with thick pointed petals (whenever present). The pollination is usually performed by insects, but wind pollination is also present (in Coriariaceae and Datiscaceae).

Ptychococcus Ptychococcus is a monoecious genus of flowering plant in the palm family from New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. They are closely related to "Ptychosperma", only differentiated by the seed shape and endocarp type. The name is a combination of the Greek for "fold" and the Latin for "berry".

Prunus integrifolia Prunus integrifolia is a tree native to mountain forests of western South America. It has much larger leaves than most other species in the genus, up to 25 cm (10 inches) long, with no teeth along the edges. Flowers are in an elongated raceme, rising vertically upwards rather than hanging as in some other species

Cynegetica (Nemesianus) The Cynegetica is a didactic Latin poem about hunting by Marcus Aurelius Olympius Nemesianus. The poem is usually dated to 283/284 A.D. - as it refers to the reign of the Roman Emperors Carinus and Numerian (AD 283 - 284).

Disinae Disinae is a subtribe of orchids that has been differently defined and placed in the two classification systems that are currently in use for orchids. "Genera Orchidacearum", which is currently the definitive work on orchid taxonomy, delimits Disinae as consisting of two closely related genera, "Disa" and "Schizodium", and it places Disinae in the mostly African tribe Diseae, along with four other subtribes: Brownleeinae, Huttonaeinae, Coryciinae, and Satyriinae. In the classification for orchids that was published by Chase et alii in 2015, "Schizodium" was placed in synonymy under "Disa", while "Pachites" and "Huttonaea" were transferred to Disinae. In "Genera Orchidacearum", "Pachites" and "Satyrium" form the subtribe Satyriinae, and "Huttonaea" is the sole genus in the subtribe Huttonaeinae. The transfer of "Pachites" and "Huttonaea" to Disinae by Chase et alii (2015) was done with considerable doubt, and was based upon uncertainty about the relationships of these two genera. In 2009, a molecular phylogenetic study found only weak statistical support for a sister relationship between "Huttonaea" and "Disa".

Cymbidium aloifolium The aloe-leafed cymbidium (Cymbidium aloifolium) is a species of orchid found in Asia, especially China and southeast Asia from Burma to Sumatra. It can be found growing between rocks or on another plant. The word "cymbidium" comes from the Greek "kumbos" meaning "hole, cavity" and the Latin specific name is just a translation of the English "aloe-leafed".

Cherry plum Prunus cerasifera is a species of plum known by the common names cherry plum and myrobalan plum. It is native to Southeast Europe and Western Asia, and is naturalised in the British Isles and scattered locations in North America.

Gnetum Gnetum is a genus of gymnosperms, the sole genus in the family Gnetaceae and order Gnetales. They are tropical evergreen trees, shrubs and lianas. Unlike other gymnosperms, they possess vessel elements in the xylem. Some species have been proposed to have been the first plants to be insect-pollinated as their fossils occur in association with extinct pollinating scorpionflies. Molecular phylogenies based on nuclear and plastid sequences from most of the species indicate hybridization among some of the Southeast Asian species. Fossil-calibrated molecular-clocks suggest that the "Gnetum" lineages now found in Africa, South America and Southeast Asia are the result of ancient long-distance dispersal across seawater.

Prunus davidiana Prunus davidiana (syn. Amygdalus davidiana, Persica davidiana, Prunus persica var. davidiana) is a species in the genus "Prunus" in the family Rosaceae. It is also known by the common names David's peach and Chinese wild peach. It is native to China.

Cyclopia (plant) Cyclopia, better known by the common name Honeybush, or Heuningbos in Afrikaans, is a genus of some 20 species of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae, of the subfamily Faboideae. The description was published by Étienne Pierre Ventenat in 1808. The name Ibbetsonia, published two years later, is regarded as a synonym of this genus; John Sims had commemorated the physiologist Agnes Ibbetson with this name.

Cystodium sorbifolium Cystodium is a fern genus in its own Cystodiaceae family. It contains a single species: Cystodium sorbifolium . Because it looks like a small tree fern, it had previously been placed in the tree fern family Dicksoniaceae. Subsequent analysis had moved it to the Lindsaeaceae, but the most recent phylogenetic studies have placed it in its own separate family, Cystodiaceae, with a sister relationship to the current Lindsaeaceae.

Acanthus Acanthus (plural: "acanthus", rarely "acanthuses" in English, or "acanthi" in Latin), in its feminine form acantha (plura: "acanthae"), is the Latinised form of the ancient Greek word acanthos or akanthos, referring to the "Acanthus" plant. It can also be used as the prefix acantho-, meaning "thorny". It may refer to:
