Gypsophila species are hyperaccumulators of boron, and may be planted to absorb the element from polluted soils. Some species are known as weeds, including the "aggressive ornamental" "G. paniculata", which invades habitat and competes with native flora. There are about 150 species in the genus. Species include: Gypsophila Gypsophila is a genus of flowering plants in the carnation family, Caryophyllaceae. They are native to Eurasia, Africa, Australia, and the Pacific Islands. Turkey has a particularly high diversity of "Gypsophila" taxa, with about 35 endemic species. Some "Gypsophila" are introduced species in other regions. The genus name is from the Greek "gypsos"
Remusatia produced bulbils that allow the plant to reproduce. The bulbils cling to animals which allows for them to be distributed and is likely the primary cause for their large distribution. Flowering of many "Remusatia"s are often rare and bulbils serve as their primary means of reproduction. The spathes of "Remusatia" are yellow and the spadix are white with a fragrance except for "Remusatia yunnanensis" whose spathe is red. Remusatia Remusatia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Araceae. It contains 4 known species, one of which was described in 1987. This species was initially placed in genus "Gonatanthus"
