''Geogenanthus poeppigii'', commonly called the seersucker plant, is a flowering plant species in the family ''Commelinaceae'' (the dayflower & spiderwort family). As currently circumscribed, the genus ''Geogenanthus'' includes two other species, ''G. ciliatus'' and ''G. rhizanthus''. This species is named after E.F. Poeppig, 19th century German explorer. ''Geogenanthus undatus'' is an outdated synonym for ''G. poeppigii''. For more details on the rather complicated synonmy for this species, see Faden (1981). ==Etymology== The genus name, ''Geogenanthus'' is derived from the Greek ''geo'' meaning earth, ''gen'' meaning produce, and ''anthus'' meaning flower: thus, earth-borne flower. This genus was named for its flowers being borne from the base of the stem, appearing to grow from the ground. The specific epithet ''poeppigii'' is named after the man who first discovered this species, Eduard Friedrich Poeppig (1798-1868). This species got its common name, 'seersucker plant', because of its close resemblance to the puckering of seersucker fabric.
