Xerochrysum

Xerochrysum (syn. Bracteantha) is a genus of flowering plants native to Australia. It was defined by Russian botanist Nikolai Tzvelev in 1990, preceding (and taking precedence over) Bracteantha which was described the following year.[1][2] A 2002 molecular study of the tribe Gnaphalieae has indicated the genus is probably polyphyletic, with X. bracteatum and X. viscosum quite removed from each other.[3]

gollark: Macron pointers are also 512 bits, so that they can contain, as well as just memory addresses, inlined data, IPv6 addresses, errors, tags for tagged union purposes, cryptographic keys, names of people to ask, other programs to invoke to "dereference" it, files, or URLs.
gollark: Yes. Keep up.
