Pseudosedum is a genus of flowering plants in the family Crassulaceae native to Central Asia and Siberia.

Pitcairnioideae is a subfamily of the bromeliad family, Bromeliaceae. Traditionally, it was a large subfamily, comprising all those species with winged or more rarely naked seeds. Molecular phylogenetic studies showed that traditional Pitcairnioideae was not monophyletic, and the subfamily was more narrowly circumscribed. As of November 2022, the Encyclopaedia of Bromeliads placed five genera in the subfamily. Members of the subfamily are found from the Andes to the coast of Brazil, with one genus (Fosterella) found northwards to Mexico.

Parajubaea is a genus of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. Species in this genus are native to the northern Andes mountains in northwestern South America. Parajubaea is named after King Juba II.

Japonolirion is a genus of plants in the family Petrosaviaceae. There is only one known species, Japonolirion osense, endemic to Japan. It is found in grasslands, wetlands and alpine meadows.

Sinocrassula is a genus of succulent, subtropical plants of the family Crassulaceae. The name "Sinocrassula" means "Chinese crassula". They come from the province Yunnan in the south of China, and also from the north of Burma. They grow at an altitude between 2,500 and 2,700 m.

Parajubaea torallyi, commonly known as the palma de Pasobaya or Bolivian mountain coconut, is a species of evergreen flowering plant of genus Parajubaea, in the family Arecaceae, closely related to the coconut palm in the tribe Cocoseae. It is endemic to Bolivia, where it grows in dry forests on steep rocky slopes at 2,400–3,400 metres (7,900–11,200 ft) in altitude. In its native habitat, due to high altitude, low night temperatures often drop to a range of -3C to -9C during local winter time (July, August), with considerable temperature spans between day and night and practically no

Codonopsis pilosula, also known as Dangshen (Chinese: 党参; pinyin: Dǎngshēn), is a perennial species of flowering plant in the bellflower family. It is native to Asia, where it grows in forests, meadows, and scrub.

Aniba rosaeodora, also known as pau-rosa, is a species of Magnoliid tree in the family Lauraceae that grows in parts of the tropical rainforest of South America. It is often mistaken for rosewood, but does not belong in the proper rosewood genus, Dalbergia, or even its order. Like rosewood, it is exploited for its essential oil, and has therefore become endangered.
