A list of plants starting with the letter Z that are grown at home, in the garden and in the vegetable garden.
Jacaranda - description

Jacaranda flower - shrubs, trees and herbaceous perennials. The leaves are pinnate and arranged oppositely. The inflorescence grows from the leaf axils or at the apex, expressed as a panicle. The flowers are lilac or blue, tubular.

Jasmine - description
The genus belongs to the olive family jasmine (lat. Jasminum) which has up to 300 species. They grow mainly in the subtropical and tropical zones of Australia, Africa and Asia; One species of this plant grows in South America and the Mediterranean.
The jasmine plant comes in both vines and shrubs, and there are both evergreen plants and species that shed their foliage. The leaves grow either opposite each other in a circle or alternately; they are either trifoliate or odd-pinnate in shape. Flowers grow both at the top and on the sides; They gather in shields, or grow one at a time, or cluster in umbrellas. The corolla can be pink (but quite rarely), yellow and white, and saucer-shaped in shape; The corolla tube is cylindrical, the throat is open.
So that jasmine is not confused with mock orange, which belongs to the saxifrage family, it is also called “real jasmine.” The only thing that connects them is the smell. Jasmine will grow well in a winter garden or room. This plant is beautifully flowering, usually hanging. Thin shoots at the top of the plant need support over time, because... the lower part becomes woody.
Jaundice (lat. Erysimum)- a genus of herbaceous plants of the Cruciferous family, distributed throughout the Northern Hemisphere. Most often, representatives of the genus are found in the mountains. There are more than 250 species in the genus, but only a few of them are cultivated. The scientific name, meaning “to help” in Greek, was given to the genus for the healing properties of some of its species. The second name for jaundice is cheiranthus.
Ginseng (lat. Panax) or "root of life"- a genus of perennial herbaceous plants of the Araliaceae family. Includes 11 species, distributed in North America and Asia. The Latin name Panax is an allusion to the daughter of a doctor among the gods of Asclepius named Panacea. In Korea and China, it has long been used for medicinal purposes. It came to Europe at the end of the 17th century as a gift to Louis XIV from the King of Siam. The plant is a long-liver (lives up to 300 years), rare in nature; ginseng root, which has incredible healing powers, is considered of particular value.
Ginseng (lat. Panax)- a genus of herbaceous perennials of the Araliaceae family, including 12 species, common in North America and Asia - in China, Tibet, the Far East and Altai. This plant has long been known as a medicinal plant and is used mainly as an adaptogen and tonic. In China and Korea, ginseng root is used in cooking. Representatives of traditional Chinese medicine believe that ginseng gives strength and prolongs life.
Tenacious (lat. Ajuga), or ayuga- a genus of herbaceous plants of the Lamiaceae, or Lamiaceae family. In our country, tenacious flowers are more often called dubnitsa, unfading, undying, dubrovka or vologlodka. In Africa and Eurasia, the tenacious grass is widespread; in Australia, two species of the genus grow, and in the temperate latitudes of the entire Northern Hemisphere, about 70 species of tenacious grass can be found. The name of the plant speaks for itself: the tenacious plant has amazing vitality. In garden culture, the most commonly grown plants are creeping tenacious and such types of tenacious as pyramidal and Geneva. Turkestan tenacious is of interest for clinical and sports medicine, since its extract has a tonic property.
Honeysuckle honeysuckle (lat. Lonicera caprifolium), or goat honeysuckle, or sweet honeysuckle- a type species of the genus Honeysuckle of the Honeysuckle family, which in the wild is found in the Caucasus and southern Europe in well-lit places with moist soil, in forests and along the edges. In culture, this type of honeysuckle is grown as an ornamental plant. "Caprifol" is translated from Latin as "goat leaf."
Plant honeysuckle (lat. Lonicera)- a type genus of the Honeysuckle family, represented by approximately two hundred species of climbing, creeping or erect shrubs. The Latin name was given to honeysuckle in honor of the German scientist Adam Lonitzer, although Carl Linnaeus preferred the name “honeysuckle” - it was honeysuckle honeysuckle (fragrant) that was most often grown in European gardens at that time. In nature, honeysuckle is common in the Northern Hemisphere, but most species of this plant grow in East Asia and the Himalayas.
Today, both climbing honeysuckle, which is most often grown for vertical gardening, and garden honeysuckle, which is of interest both as an ornamental plant and as a source of tasty and healthy fruits, are cultivated in gardens.
