Angelonia
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Automated taxobox".
Angelonia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Plantaginaceae. It comprises about 30 species which occur from Mexico to Argentina. Species of the genus Angelonia are herbaceous plants occurring mainly in arid and semi-arid habitats. Most species can be found in north-eastern Brazil in the seasonally-dry tropical forest Caatinga.[2] The flowers of Angelonia species are highly specialized for pollination because they have hairs in the inner corolla, which produces oils collected by oil bee pollinators, especially of the genus Centris.[3]
Cultivation
Some species are cultivated as ornamental plants for their snapdragon-like flowers, but need warm temperatures and large amounts of sunlight.[4] Garden varieties are mainly cultivars of A. angustifolia.
Species
29 species are accepted.[1] Script error: No such module "TaxonList".
