Cotinus is a genus of two species of flowering plants in the family Anacardiaceae, closely related to the sumacs (Rhus). They are commonly known as Smoketree or Smoke bush. They are large shrubs or small trees, native to the warm temperate northern hemisphere. The leaves are deciduous, alternate, simple oval shape, 3–13 cm long. The flowers are clustered in large open terminal panicles 15–30 cm long with a fluffy grayish-buff appearance resembling a cloud of smoke over the plant, from which the name derives. The fruit is a small drupe with a single seed. Often classified in Rhus in the past, they are distinguished by the leaves being simple (not pinnate) and the 'smoke-like' fluffy flower heads. The smoke trees, particularly C. coggygria, are popular garden shrubs.           Cotinus coggygria syn. Rhus cotinus commonly known as Eurasian Smoketree, Smoke Tree, or Smoke Bush is a species of flowering plant native to a large area from southern Europe, east across central Asia and the Himalayas to northern China. It is a multiple-branching shrub growing to 5–7 m tall with an open, spreading, irregular habit, only rarely forming a small tree. The leaves are 3-8 cm long rounded ovals, green with a waxy glaucous sheen. The autumn colour can be strikingly varied, from peach and yellow to scarlet. The flowers are numerous, produced in large inflorescences 15–30 cm long; each flower 5-10 mm diameter, with five pale yellow petals. Most of the flowers in each inflorescence abort, elongating into yellowish-pink to pinkish-purple feathery plumes (when viewed en masse these have a wispy 'smoke-like' appearance, hence the common name) which surround the small (2-3 mm) drupaceous fruit that do develop.

Euonymus commonly known as spindle or spindle tree is a genus of flowering plants in the staff vine family, Celastraceae. It comprises about 130 species of deciduous and evergreen shrubs and small trees. They are mostly native to East Asia, extending to the Himalayas, and they are also distributed in Europe, Australasia, North America, and Madagascar. 50 species are endemic to China. The flowers occur in small groups, inconspicuous and of green or yellow shades. The leaves are opposite (rarely alternate) and simple ovoid, typically 2–15 cm long, and usually with a finely serrated margin. The fruit is a pink-red four- or five-valved pod-like berry, which splits open to reveal the fleshy-coated orange seeds. The plants attract birds and the seeds are eaten by frugivorous birds, which digest the fleshy seed coat and disperse the seeds in their droppings. Many species are used for medicinal use.            The wood of some species was traditionally used for the making of spindles for spinning wool; this use is the origin of the English name of the shrubs. Spindles are popular garden shrubs, grown for their foliage, the deciduous species often exhibiting very bright red autumnal colours, and also for the decorative berries. Euonymus alatus known variously as Winged Spindle, Winged Euonymus or Burning Bush is native to central and northern China, Japan, and Korea. In open soil this deciduous shrub grows to 2.5 metres tall, often wider than tall. The stems are notable for their four corky ridges or "wings". The word alatus (or alata, used formerly) is Latin for "winged", in reference to the winged branches. These unique structures develop from a cork cambium deposited in longitudinal grooves in the twigs' first year, unlike similar wings in other plants. The common name "burning bush" comes from the bright red autumn color. It is a popular bonsai subject and ornamental plant in pots, gardens and parks due to its bright pink or orange fruit and attractive autumn color.

Capparis sepiaria Seeds Common Name: Wild Caper-bush   Capparis is a flowering plant genus in the family Capparaceae. These plants are shrubs or lianas and are collectively known as caper shrubs or caperbushes. Caperbushes are mainly used by humans for their fruit, which are rich in micronutrients. In nature Capparis sepiaria or Wild caper-bush as it is commonly known grows to 6m in height yet in cultivation it grows into a shrub about 2m high. It has shiny oblong leaves with basal hooked thorns and during the summer months is has the most beautiful clusters of white-cream to mauve flowers. These are followed by fleshy purplish fruit. The wild caper-bush’s fruit and seeds are relished by many birds and other animals which makes it a “must have” for any serious gardener.

Yucca is a genus of perennial shrubs and trees in the agave family, Agavaceae. Its species are notable for their rosettes of evergreen, tough, sword-shaped leaves and large terminal panicles of white or whitish flowers. They are native to the hot and dry (arid) parts of North America, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. Yucca whipplei ssp. eremica is a synonym for Hesperoyucca whipplei ssp. eremica, a non-trunk-forming plant that forms rosettes, either solitary or with age in small groups, with very stiff blue leaves noticeably striated that are 20 cm to 40 cm long by about 2.5cm wide with a sharp tip and leaf margins that are rough to finely toothed and the underside of the leaf rough on the surface.           When the plant is mature the bell-shaped white flowers are formed on stout vertical spikes 1.2 m to 2.4 m tall - after flowering this plant produces new rosettes from the base of the flowering plant, which differentiates this plant from some other Hesperoyucca whipplei subspecies. Other characteristics that distinguish this plant are its shorter, broader and stiffer leaves and thicker seed capsules. This plant comes from Baja California Norte, Mexico where it grows on flat terrain to steep ridges from 300 m to 750 m in elevation. 

Protea is both the botanical name and the English common name of a genus of South African flowering plants, sometimes also called sugarbushes in Eglish and Suikerbos in Afrikaans. The genus Protea was named after the Greek god Proteus, who could change his form at will, because plants within this genus have such a wide variety of forms. The Proteaceae family to which proteas belong is an ancient one. Its ancestors grew in Gondwana, 300 million years ago. Most protea occur south of the Limpopo River. 92% of the species occur only in the Cape Floristic Region, a narrow belt of mountainous coastal land from Clanwilliam to Grahamstown, South Africa. They are evergreen shrubs or trees usually found in fynbos. Protea blossoms make excellent cut flowers, keeping their colour for up to three weeks.           In the garden they do well in rockeries and also make excellent feature plants. An added attraction during flowering time is the numerous birds attracted to the plants. Other well-known genera of the Proteaceae are Aulax with brightly coloured pincushion flowers, Leucospermum also known as pincushions, Leucadendron with decorative woody cones and Serruria, of which Serruria florida, the blushing bride, with its beautiful pale pink flowers is the most well-known, Spatalla and Telopea with its unique bright flowers. Protea neriifolia commonly known as Blue Sugarbush, Narrow-leaved Sugarbush or Oleander-leaved Sugarbush in English and Baardsuikerbos, Baardsuikerkan, Blousuikerbos, Blou-suikerbos, Blousuikerkan, Roosboom or Suikerbos in Afrikaans is a South African endemic species naturally found growing in the Eastern Cape Province. It grows to a 3m shrub with narrow oblong leaves. Flowers are creamy-green to deep pink in winter, beard white to purple-black. Good cut flower. It tolerates a wide range of soils and is easy to grow.

Fuchsia is a genus of flowering plants that consists mostly of shrubs or small trees. The first, Fuchsia triphylla, was discovered on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola about 1696–1697 by the French Minim monk and botanist, Charles Plumier during his third expedition to the Greater Antilles. He named the new genus after the renowned German botanist Leonhart Fuchs. There are currently almost 110 recognized species of Fuchsia. The vast majority are native to South America, but with a few occurring north through Central America to Mexico, and also several from New Zealand to Tahiti.         Fuchsia boliviana is a species of Fuchsia native to southern Peru, Bolivia and northern Argentina. It is a medium evergreen shrub, growing to 2–4 m tall, rarely to 6 m, with a spreading, open habit. It has large, hairy mid-green leaves and red petioles. It has large drooping corymbs up to 20 cm long borne in late summer and autumn of scarlet red flowers with the individual flowers 3–7 cm long. A white-flowering form exists named 'Alba', with a white tube and scarlet petals. After flowering it bears small red-purple, edible fruit 10–26 mm long. Fuchsia boliviana is widely grown in shade or part-shade in cooler, subtropical climates. Plants require protection from direct sun and temperatures exceeding 40 °C. The plants are hardy to about -4 °C for short periods. Propagation is by seed or cuttings.

Yucca is a genus of perennial shrubs and trees in the agave family, Agavaceae. Its 40-50 species are notable for their rosettes of evergreen, tough, sword-shaped leaves and large terminal panicles of white or whitish flowers. They are native to the hot and dry (arid) parts of North America, Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. Yucca aloifolia commonly known as Spanish Bayonet has an erect trunk, 7 – 12cm in diameter, reaching up to 6m tall.           At around 6 meters it becomes top heavy and topples over. When that happens, the tip turns upward and keeps on growing. One can avoid this from happening by removing the top part of the trunk that supports the leaves. The head can then be placed onto soil where it will root and the remaining trunk will quickly form new heads along its length and around the cut edge. The trunk is armed with sharp pointed strap like leaves each about 60cm long. The young leaves near the growing tip stand erect; older ones are reflexed downward, and the oldest wither and turn brown, hanging around the lower trunk like a Hawaiian skirt. Eventually the tip of the trunk develops a 60cm long spike of white, purplish-tinged flowers, each blossom about 10cm across. After flowering, the trunk stops growing, but one or more lateral buds are soon formed, and the uppermost becomes a new terminal shoot. Any other buds become branches, but these are usually few, and the plant has an open, airy habit. Spanish bayonet also produces new buds, or offshoots, near the base of the trunk, forming a thicket.
