Canephora
''Canephora'' is a genus of flowering plants in the Rubiaceae family, indigenous to Madagascar.〔(Antoine Laurent de Jussieu. 1789. Genera Plantarum 208, ''Canephora'' )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''Canephora'' in the World Checklist of Rubiaceae )〕 == Description == The name ''Canephora'', "basket bearer", refers to both the flattened peduncle topped by a "hollowed apex bearing flowers" and to the ritual office for unmarried young women in ancient Greece, as bearer of a sacred basket full of offerings during processions at festivals. ''Canephora'' is unique in Rubiaceae in having peduncles transformed into flattened, green axes called phylloclades. ''Canephora madagascariensis'' has bright white, campanulate flowers and apparently edible, red fruits, locally known as "hazongalala".
