Parogonum (Haraldson) Desjardins & J.P. Bailey. Subfamily: Polygonoideae. Tribe: Polygoneae. Subtribe: Reynoutriinae.
A genus of 2 species (and 3 taxa), herbs, disjunctly in e. North America and e. Asia. The two species of Parogonum have usually been considered to be congeneric with the species of Fallopia; Desjardins et al. (2023) found that Parogonum is sister to Fallopia + Muehlenbeckia, and elevated section Parogonum Haraldson to genus rank to maintain a taxonomy of monophyletic genera.

- If you opt out of including email, please be as specific as possible (e.g., which photo is incorrect?)
- Please do not submit questions asking to identify plants or about horticultural topics (e.g., how do I control an invasive plant in my garden?). Instead, those questions can be submitted here for the Carolinas region only.
- Please do not send us feedback about unkeyed species as this work is ongoing.
- Please allow time for flora edits to show in our next data release. We greatly appreciate your feedback but may require extra time to research complicated taxonomic issues.
