Psychopterys
Psychopterys is a genus in the Malpighiaceae, a family of about 75 genera of flowering plants in the order Malpighiales. Psychopterys comprises 8 species of woody vines, occasionally described as shrubs or small trees, which occur in matorral, tropical deciduous forest, and wet forest in southern Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize. This genus is very distinctive because of its nearly radial white corollas and eglandular sepals, which are highly unusual characteristics in the Malpighiaceae of the New World.

gollark: Installing potatOS within OneOS will overwrite OneOS with potatOS; installing OneOS within potatOS will be fine.
gollark: CraftOS is installed by default.
gollark: Quite well, I think.
gollark: Look, try potatOS yourself, the speed difference is small.
gollark: Well, boot time is taken up by:* checking for updates* initialising the sandbox* downloading init code* running init codebut with the fast reboot thing it only does the running init code bit.
