(“apocynaceae” is a family of flowering plants that includes trees, shrubs, herbs, stem succulents, and vines, commonly called the dogbane family, after the american plant known as dogbane, “apocynum cannabinum”)
.
(members of the family are native to ‘european’, ‘asian’, ‘african’, ‘australian’, and ‘american’ tropics or subtropics, with some temperate members)
(the family ‘asclepiadaceae’ (now known as ‘asclepiadoideae’) is considered a subfamily of ‘apocynaceae’ and contains 348 genera)
(many species are tall trees found in tropical rainforests, but some grow in tropical dry (xeric) environments)
(also perennial herbs from temperate zones occur)
(many of these plants have milky latex, and many species are poisonous if ingested)
.
(some genera of ‘apocynaceae’ – such as adenium – have ‘milky latex’ apart from their ‘sap’…)
.
(…and others – such as pachypodium, have ‘clear sap’ + no ‘latex’)
