Azure bluet (Rubiaceae: Houstonia caerulea) can be found throughout much of eastern North America in deciduous woodlands and moist meadows. While the small basal leaves of this perennial aren’t obvious, the bright blue and yellow flowers definitely are. Zaleski State Forest, Ohio, 02 May 2014.

The bumps on the leaves of Psychotria punctata are called “punctae.” The leaf surface is described as 𝗽𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲. Hence the epithet. #Rubiaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱

Even though #Botany2025 is over, the botany hasn’t stopped for the #LagoLab! Aislinn and I are spending a few days working at @mobotgarden.bsky.social with Charlotte Taylor and our beloved rubes. #Rubiaceae #Taxonomy #Classification #Phylogeny #WomenInSTEM

The stipules of Rubiaceae, which have opposite (paired) leaves, are fused to become interpetiolar stipules. A single pair of stipules is shared between the two leaves. The awl-shaped stipule on this Ixora coccinea has a twin on the other side of the node. #stipule #Rubiaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱
