This issue of the Qjure Journal is about Piperales.
In the Plant heory Piperales is split is 2 orders, Piperales and Aristolochiales. Piperales consist of 2 families Piperaceae and Saururaceae. Some times Peperomiaceae is also split off from Piperaceae.
In the Plant theory Saururaceae is placed in Subphase 7 and Piperaceae is split in 6 subfamilies.The Piperales have as main theme the neglected child. They feel left alone, at home, at school, or in a hospital. They feel not loved and appreciated. It is a bitter state.
The best known and most available subfamily is the Peperomiaceae. They have as an addition the feeling of being powerless against the negative treatment they are getting. They feel overwhelmed and can only be passive.We wish you much reading pleasure.Jan Scholten
