| The flowers of many species are very beautiful, but few forms are in cultivation. In this country the only one apparently is Dillenia indica, a large magnolia-ike tree with flowers 9 inches in diameter, grown in southern California and in Florida. | | The flowers of many species are very beautiful, but few forms are in cultivation.

− | '''Dilleniaceae''' is the [[botanical name]] for a [[family (biology)|family]] of [[flowering plants]]. Such a family has been universally recognized by taxonomists. It is known to gardeners for the genus ''[[Hibbertia]]'', which contains many commercially valuable garden species.
| + | ==Genera== |
| | | |
− | The family consists of about a dozen genera, of a few hundred species, found in the tropics and sub-tropics plus entire [[Australia]]. The species are mostly woody plants, but range from herbaceous plants up to large trees.

− | The [[APG II system]], of 2003 (unchanged from the [[APG system]], of 1998), also recognizes this family, unplaced as to order, assigned to the clade [[core eudicots]].
