        Francoaceae

        Francoaceae is a family of flowering plants with an interesting story. These plants are native to South America and were first discovered by French botanist Claude Antoine Gaspard Régnier in the early 19th century. Régnier named the genus after himself, calling it Francoa. However, he misspelled his own name and added an extra “o”, resulting in the name Francoaceae.

        The plants are commonly known as bridal wreaths, due to their delicate, frothy blooms that resemble bridal veils. Interestingly, they are also known for their medicinal properties, specifically for their ability to soothe inflammation and treat skin conditions. Francoaceae may have had a rocky start with its name, but there’s no doubt that these beautiful plants have made a lasting impact on the botanical world.

        Wendtia gracilis seeds
        Vivianiaceae was a family of flowering plants placed in the order Geraniales. The family name is derived from the genus Viviania Cav. It includes both the genus Viviania and Balbisia. The family is now wholly incorporated into the family Francoaceae.

        There are around 1-4 genera in Vivianiaceae (Araeoandra, Caesarea, Cissarobryon, Viviania; with all of four genera can be merged into one genus), and under the APG III system the genera from Ledocarpaceae – Balbisia (incl. Ledocarpon), Rhynchotheca, and Wendtia – are now included within the Vivianiaceae.

        A relationship with Caryophyllales, was formerly suggested; but morphology (S-plastids) and chemistry are close to Geraniales.
