Asphodel Family Genera (Asphodelaceae)

Asphodel Family Genera (Asphodelaceae) is a Browse By group of the Nature Atlas that gathers genera of the asphodel family Asphodelaceae, a family of flowering plants that contains many succulents with fleshy leaves, such as Aloe, whose best known member, Aloe vera, is cultivated worldwide, and which the modern APG IV classification places in the subfamily Asphodeloideae. An entry belongs here when its own cited article places the genus in the family Asphodelaceae. It excludes the cactus genera, which are also succulents but belong to an unrelated family with a group of its own. The group lets a reader compare the succulents of the Old World that are not cacti.
