Jacquinia Keyensis is a species of flowering plant found in the Florida Keys, also known as yellow jacquinia or false boxwood. The plant derives its name from the botanist, Nikolaus Joseph von Jacquin. Some synonyms for Jacquinia Keyensis include Jacquinia macrocarpa, Jacquinia floridana, and Rondea Keyensis. This plant is typically found in coastal areas such as mangrove islands and sandy flats and is known for its evergreen leaves and small, creamy white flowers. The plant's berries are edible, but they are not commonly consumed by humans or wildlife due to their bitter taste. Jacquinia Keyensis plays an important role in the coastal ecosystem, providing shelter and food for various small animals and insects.
