Hypericum sect. Adenosepalum is one of 36 sections in the genus Hypericum. [1] Its type species is Hypericum montanum . [2]
Species in the section are found primarily in Western and Central Europe, Central Russia, the Caucasus, and Morocco. [3]
The section contains a variety of types of plants including shrubs, shrublets, and wiry or soft herbs that grow to be up to 2.5 metres (8.2 ft) tall. If the species in the section are woody, they will be deciduous. They will either be glabrous or have simple hairs and have dark black glands on their leaves. The leaves are placed opposite but in very rare cases are 3-whorled. [4]
Section Adenosepalum contains thirty species divided into four subsections as well as two nothospecies. In addition, H. annulatum has three recognized subspecies and H. aethiopicum has two.
Genista is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family Fabaceae, native to open habitats such as moorland and pasture in Europe and western Asia. They include species commonly called broom, though the term may also refer to other genera, including Cytisus and Chamaecytisus. Brooms in other genera are sometimes considered synonymous with Genista: Echinospartum, Retama, Spartium, Stauracanthus, and Ulex.
Spartium junceum is the sole species in the genus Spartium. Known as the Spanish broom, rush broom or weaver's broom, it is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae. It is closely related to the other brooms. There are many binomials in Spartium that are of dubious validity.
