	Tasmannia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tasmannia is a genus of woody, evergreen flowering plants of the family Winteraceae.
		The species of Tasmannia are native Australia, New Guinea and New Zealand.
		The species of Tasmannia were formerly classified in genus Drimys, a related group of Winteraceae native to the Neotropic.

	Tasmannia purpurascens - Growing Native Plants
		Tasmannia purpurascens is a useful foliage plant 1-3 m high and 1.5 m wide.
		Tasmannia is of particular interest to botanists as it is a member of the primitive family Winteraceae.
		Tasmannia purpurascens does not attract many pests and diseases, although in glasshouse and indoor situations it may be attacked by mealy bug, which may distort the foliage.

	Untitled Document
		The leathery leaves of Tasmannia lanceolata contain a hot tasting compound (polygodial) which, together with many of the aromatic compounds common in other essential oil bearing plants, results in an unusual fragrant, spicy taste and a 'bushy' rainforest feel.
		During the nineteenth century and the first half of this century, Tasmannia species were thought to have economic possibilities as a pepper or allspice substitute, and for their resemblance to a rare herbal remedy prepared from a related South American species.
		The leaves and berries of the plant are now used in Australia to lend a 'wild, natural and spicy' taste to foods of the native food genre, such as emu hamburgers, flavoured breads, pastas and pates, mustards and cheeses and are finding their way into the kitchens of many of the more innovative restaurants.

		Abstract: The dissimilar carpels of representatives of the Tasmannia and Wintera sections of the genus Drimys have been investigated developmentally with particular attention to the presence of peltation.
		In Drimys winteri of the Wintera section peltation results from an active adaxial meristem, but in D. lanceolata of the Tasmannia section the adaxial "cross-zone" meristem is weakly developed and contributes little to the carpel.
		The form of the carpels also shows contrasts; the carpel of D. lanceolata begins growth as paired ridges separated by a cleft extending over the summit.
