The lists of cultivars in the table below are indices of plant cultivars, varieties, and strains. A cultivar is a plant that is selected for desirable characteristics that can be maintained by propagation. The plants listed may be ornamental, medicinal, and/or edible. Several of them bear edible fruit.
The fruit, 15–20 mm in diameter, is likely to be the smallest in the whole genus. [8] Wester also recorded a somewhat more vigorous variety, called "samuyao-sa-amoo" in Bohol, with slightly larger fruits; there is a possibility that this species was actually Limonellus aurarius , described by Georg Eberhard Rumphius back in 1741 in a nearby ...

Annona squamosa is a small, well-branched tree or shrub [7] from the family Annonaceae that bears edible fruits called sugar apples or sweetsops. [8] It tolerates a tropical lowland climate better than its relatives Annona reticulata and Annona cherimola [6] (whose fruits often share the same name) [3] helping make it the most widely cultivated of these species. [9]
One example is the infructescence of Ananas, which is formed from the fusion of the berries with receptacle tissues and bracts. [2] [3] The mature infructescence of a grain, such as wheat or maize, is known as an ear. The infructescence of Ficus is called a syconium. [4]
Trees that were planted by seeds could take 6 or 7 years to give out fruit, but trees that were propagated by cuttings produce fruit in 3 or 4 years. It is a very productive tree. [citation needed] The fact that fruits vary greatly – in shape, color, hairiness and taste – suggests that there is a great deal of genetic variation in the plant.
The fruit is eaten by over 23 species of birds. Over 38 species of butterflies and moths use the tree as a host plant. Sassafras is a highly underrated ornamental shade tree.
Philadelphus (/ ˌ f ɪ l ə ˈ d ɛ l f ə s / [2]) (mock-orange) is a genus of about 60 species of shrubs from 3–20 ft (1–6 m) tall, native to North America, Central America, Asia and (locally) in southeast Europe.
