Beaufortia (plant) tallest are up to in height. Most are andromonoecious, meaning they have both male and bisexual flowers on one plant. The flowers are in spikelike or headlike inflorescences. The flower has five triangular sepals and five white, yellow, red, pink, or purple petals, which are sometimes hairy. The petals usually fall off as the flower opens, or shortly after that. The stamens are red or deep pink, arranged in five bundles and extend well beyond the petals, giving the inflorescence its colour. Unlike other closely related genera such as "Melaleuca", the anthers are attached to the filament at their base
Chelone (plant) Arkansas and Michigan, or the Atlantic coastal plain from South Carolina to Maryland. The relationship between the different populations is complicated and it appears that "C. obliqua" in fact has arisen several times from diploid ancestors of the other three species. The four species seem to have diverged recently. Chelone (plant) Chelone is a genus of four species of perennial herbaceous plants native to eastern North America. They all have similarly shaped flowers (which led to the name turtlehead due to their resemblance to the head of a turtle), which vary in color from white to red, purple or pink.
