These are small, squat, herbaceous plants with spiny-looking [[inflorescence]]s of flowers. The flowers may be in shades of red or yellow to white. The [[bract]]s are pointed and sometimes tipped with a hooked [[awn]], and the inflorescence often dries into a rounded, spiny husk. Spineflowers are found in western North America and South America.<br /> <br /> Selected species:<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe angustifolia]]'' - narrowleaf spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe blakleyi]]'' - Blakley's spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe brevicornu]]'' - brittle spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe breweri]]'' - San Luis Obispo spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe corrugata]]'' - wrinkled spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe cuspidata]]'' - San Francisco spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe douglasii]]'' - San Benito spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe howellii]]'' - Mendocino spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe membranacea]]'' - pink spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe obovata]]'' - spoonsepal spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe orcuttiana]]'' - San Diego spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe pungens]]'' - Monterey spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe rectispina]]'' - prickly spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe rigida]]'' - devil's spineflower, rigid spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe staticoides]]'' - turkish rugging<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe stellulata]]'' - starlet spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe valida]]'' - Sonoma spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe watsonii]]'' - fivetooth spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe wheeleri]]'' - Santa Barbara spineflower<br /> *''[[Chorizanthe xanti]]'' - Riverside spineflower<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> *[http://ucjeps.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/get_JM_treatment.pl?5936,5941 Jepson Manual Treatment]<br /> *[http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=CHORI2 USDA Plants Profile]<br /> *[http://www.life.umd.edu/emeritus/reveal/pbio/eriog/choriz/chorizanthe.html Key to the genus]<br /> <br /> {{Caryophyllales-stub}}<br /> [[Category:Polygonaceae]]</div>
