Chionanthus pygmaeus

''Chionanthus pygmaeus'' is a rare species of flowering plant in the olive family known by the common name pygmy fringetree. It is endemic to Florida, where there are 46 known occurrences as of 2010.〔USFWS. (''C. pygmaeus'' Five Year Review. ) August 17, 2010.〕 The plant is found in increasingly rare habitat in Central Florida that is being consumed for development, and some protected areas are not managed adequately.〔 Most populations are small.〔 It is a federally listed endangered species of the United States.〔
==Characteristics==
This plant is quite variable in appearance, depending on the type of habitat in which it grows.〔(The Nature Conservancy )〕 It is usually a shrub remaining under a meter tall, but at times may grow into a tree 4 to 5 meters in height. The branches may grow directly from the sand if the trunk becomes totally buried in a dune.〔 The dark yellowish-green, leathery leaves are roughly oval in shape and may be 3 to 10 centimeters long. The petioles may be maroon in color. The inflorescence is a panicle of three to six flowers borne in the leaf axils. The fragrant flower has four elongated, narrow lobes in its bell-shaped corolla and measures up to 1.5 centimeters long. The drooping panicle with many narrow corolla lobes may appear fringelike, hence the plant's common name. The fruit is a drupe up to 2.5 centimeters long which ripens purple or brownish in color. The plant reproduces sexually via seed and vegetatively by growing new shoots. It resprouts after its aboveground parts are burned away in fire.〔USFWS. (Pygmy Fringetree. ) Multispecies Recovery Plan for South Florida.〕〔(Center for Plant Conservation )〕 It is a dioecious species.〔 It is probably quite long-lived.〔
