==Biological description==
The genus comprises [[Herbaceous plant|herbaceous]] [[perennial plant]]s, [[shrub]]s and rarely small [[tree]]s growing 0.5–6&nbsp;m tall, with [[bipinnate]] leaves. The [[flower]]s are produced in cylindrical or globose [[inflorescence]]s and have numerous long slender [[stamen]]s which give rise to the common names '''powder-puff''', '''powder puff plant''', and '''fairy duster'''. These plants flower all year round, but the best blooming is in spring and summer. They can be easily pruned.
