Pseuderanthemum is a genus of about 60 species of herbs and shrubs native to
the tropical regions of the world. The name is from the Greek pseudo, false,
and Eranthemum, the genus in which these plants were formerly placed. So,
they are commonly called false eranthemums.
The variety Yellow-Vein Eranthemum is an evergreen shrub notable for its
unusual green-veined creamy yellow foliage. It has small white flowers
with purple-pink dotty spots at the base.
