		Crassulaceae are a diverse and systematically complex angiosperm family comprising 33 genera and approximately 1,500 species.
		Crassulaceae have long been considered a natural group closely related to Saxifragaceae.
		For example, Sedum, the largest genus of Crassulaceae, has been referred to as a "dust bin taxon", suggesting it is polyphyletic.

	Crassulaceae - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Crassulaceae, or orpine family, is a family of dicotyledons.
		Classification within the family is difficult because many of the species hybridize readily, both in the wild and in cultivation.
		Some older classifications included the Crassulaceae in the Rosales, but newer schemes treat them in the order Saxifragales.

	Crassulaceae Notes for Plant Taxonomy
		To physiologists, the family is known (or should be known) as the home of Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM), a modification of photosynthesis that involves opening stomates at night to absorb carbon dioxide and fixing light energy during the day with the stomates closed.
		Members of the Crassulaceae are succulent herbs or shrubs that have leaves that are simple, entire, fleshy, and whorled or almost so.
		The Crassulaceae grows from tropical to boreal regions, often in arid habitats.

		Crassulaceae + Aphanopetalaceae + Tetracarpaeaceae + Haloragaceae + Penthoraceae: stem with endodermis; nodes 1:1; stipules 0.
		Crassulaceae are recognisable by their succulent herbaceous or soft-stemmed habit, and their flowers, which have the same number of sepals, petals and carpels; the latter are more or less free and have nectariferous scales at their bases.

		The Crassulaceae is a medium sized family consisting of up to 1500 species.

	Crassulaceae
		The plant family Crassulaceae is the third largest of Families containing exclusively succulent plants.
		Most Crassulaceae respond rapidly to cultivation and are therefore included in the succulents that require very little feeding.
		Many of the genera in the Crassulaceae family have the reputation of being "too easy" to grow and hence aren't much of a challenge.

	Crassulaceae Website - Introduction
		Everything started very harmlessly in the year 1990 with a small collection of Crassulaceae plants which we really liked because of their often perfect rosette shape.
		Our primary goal is to give an overview (as far as ever possible) over the plants of the American Crassulaceae family in words and pictures.
		Easily understandable for the layperson, added with our own experiences from the location, provided with references to further reading and - for the more interested of you - completed with the original description from the scientific literature.

	Adromischus
		The best colouration and compact growth is achieved when they are given good light conditions, such as those found on the top bench or high shelf of a lightly shaded UK greenhouse.
		They form part of the Crassulaceae family and are closely related to the genera Cotyledon and Tylocodon.
		The following taxonomy pages are based upon Volume 14 (Crassulaceae) of the 'Flora of Southern Africa' by Tölken and also the eminently readable and profusely illustrated Cactus File Handbook 3 by John Pilbeam, Chris Rodgerson and Derek Tribble.

		The Macaronesian clade (Crassulaceae) includes four genera, Aeonium, Aichryson, Greenovia, and Monanthes, that are largely endemic to the Canary Islands.
		The monophyly of this clade has been supported based on phylogenetic analyses of Crassulaceae; however relationships within this clade remain uncertain.
		Aeonium, the largest genus of Canary Island Crassulaceae, comprises species that are highly diverse in growth form, including rosette trees, candelabrum shrubs, highly-branched shrubs, and woody rosettes.
