Hawkweed
Hieracium
Hieracium is a large, taxonomically complex genus of flowering plants in the daisy family (Asteraceae), commonly known as hawkweed. The genus name comes from the ancient Greek 'hierax' (hawk), tied to an old legend that hawks used the plant's milky sap to sharpen their eyesight. Hawkweeds are herbaceous perennials that form basal rosettes of hairy, often bristly leaves and send up erect flowering stems topped with clusters of small, dandelion-like yellow or orange flower heads. Reproduction is unusual: most species reproduce apomictically, producing genetically identical seeds without fertilization, which has led botanists to describe anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand microspecies. While some Hieracium species are valued as low-maintenance wildflowers for naturalized gardens and pollinator plantings, many others (such as orange hawkweed and meadow hawkweed) are aggressive colonizers classified as noxious, invasive weeds in North America, New Zealand, and parts of Australia, where they outcompete native vegetation and forage grasses.
Narrowleaf Hawkweed
Hieracium umbellatum
Narrowleaf hawkweed is a perennial herb in the Asteraceae family, native to temperate regions across the Northern Hemisphere (Europe, Asia, and North America). It forms a basal rosette with narrow, toothed leaves and produces umbrella-shaped clusters of dandelion-like yellow flowerheads from mid-summer to fall. It is a hardy, adaptable plant commonly found along roadsides, in open woodlands, and on sandy or disturbed ground.
Monkey's Tail Cactus
Hildewintera colademononis
Hildewintera colademononis, also classified as Cleistocactus colademononis, is an epiphytic and pendulous cactus native to the moist rocky slopes of Florida province in the Santa Cruz department of Bolivia, where it grows hanging from cliffs at altitudes of up to 1,500 meters. Its cylindrical stems, 3 to 7 cm in diameter, can reach up to 2.5 meters in length and are covered by dozens of white, thin, and hair-like soft spines that resemble a monkey's furry tailβthe origin of its popular nickname. Between spring and summer, it produces vibrant red flowers up to 8 cm long that bloom almost horizontally along the stems. It is a relatively fast-growing species, ideal for hanging baskets, and has received the prestigious Award of Garden Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society.
Amaryllis / Hippeastrum (genus)
Hippeastrum
Hippeastrum is a genus of large, bulbous perennial plants in the family Amaryllidaceae, native to tropical and subtropical regions of South America.

It is a dioecious plant (separate male and female individuals), extremely resistant to frost, drought, wind, and salty coastal air.
Hohenbergia
Hohenbergia
Hohenbergia is a genus of bromeliads in the family Bromeliaceae, comprising roughly 53 species native to the West Indies, the Yucatan Peninsula, and northern South America (Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil). Plants form rosettes of broad, stiff, often spine-edged strap-like leaves that converge at the base into a central "tank" that holds water and organic debris. A single tall, showy flower spike is produced from the rosette center, lasting for months, with bracts and flowers in shades of red, salmon, pink, white, or purple β the feature that most distinguishes the genus from its close relative Aechmea.
Homalomena
Homalomena
Homalomena is a genus of roughly 150 tropical aroid species native to Southeast Asia and parts of tropical South America, prized as houseplants for their glossy, heart- or shield-shaped foliage. This is a genus-level profile covering common cultivated species such as Homalomena rubescens and its cultivars ("Emerald Gem", "Selby"); individual species vary somewhat in mature size and leaf color.
Wall barley
Hordeum murinum
Wall barley is a low, tufted annual grass in the barley genus, native to the Mediterranean, Central Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa, and now widely naturalized across temperate regions worldwide.
