'''''Vancouveria''''' ({{pron-en|væn.kuːˈvɪəriə}}<!--with an en, not an eng-->)<ref>''Sunset Western Garden Book,'' 1995:606–607</ref> is a small genus of plants belonging to the [[Berberidaceae|barberry family]]. The three plants in this genus are known generally as '''inside-out flowers''', and they are endemic to western North America. The genus was named after [[George Vancouver]]. {{Inc| Vancouveria (after Capt. George Vancouver, commander of the Discovery in the voyage to the northwest coast in 1791-1795). Berberidaceae. Low hardy perennial herbs, grown in the garden border. Rhizome creeping: lvs. pinnate, 2-3-ternately compound: scape leafless, racemose or somewhat paniculate at the summit: sepals 6, in 2 rows, obovate, petal-like, reflexed; petals 6, ligulate; stamens 6: fr. a follicle, dehiscent by a dorsal suture.—Three species, natives of the Pacific coast of N. Amer. The lvs. are somewhat like maidenhair or rue, and the fls. are rather small and white or yellow. Vancouverias demand a rich soil in rather shady positions. They are not showy plants, but have foliage of an elegant and refined type. }} ==Cultivation== <!--- Type cultivation info below this line, then delete this entire line --> ===Propagation=== <!--- Type propagation info below this line, then delete this entire line --> ===Pests and diseases=== <!--- Type pest/disease info below this line, then delete this entire line --> ==Species== *''[[Vancouveria chrysantha]]'' - golden inside-out flower *''[[Vancouveria hexandra]]'' - white inside-out flower *''[[Vancouveria planipetala]]'' - redwood inside-out flower ==Gallery== {{photo-sources}}<!-- remove this line if there are already 3 or more photos in the gallery --> <gallery> Image:Upload.png| photo 1 Image:Upload.png| photo 2 Image:Upload.png| photo 3 </gallery> ==References== *[[Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture]], by L.
