Uses

Chenille Plant (A. The chenille plant, ( Acalypha hispida) belongs to the family of Euphorbiaceae and is from the subfamily of Acalyphinae and the genus Acalypha hispida), cultivated as houseplant because of its colorful and texturally exciting flowers, is by far the best-known species. Others are grown for their foliage and a number of cultivars have been developed,m such as A. In Botany, a leaf is an above-ground Plant organ specialized for Photosynthesis. A cultivar is a cultivated Plant that has been selected and given a unique name because of its decorative or useful characteristics it is usually distinct from similar wilkesiana cv. 'Obovata Cristata'. A. bipartita is eaten as a vegetable in some parts of Africa[2]. Acalypha bipartita is a species in the botanical family Euphorbiaceae.
