The Polygonaceae are a family of flowering plants known informally as the knotweed family or smartweed—buckwheat family in the United States. The name is based on the genus Polygonum, and was first used by Antoine Laurent de Jussieu in 1789 in his book, Genera Plantarum.
POLYGONACEAE P. Acevedo-Rodríguez A nearly cosmopolitan family of 55 genera and ~1,115 species of herbs, shrubs, trees, and lianas. The 36 species of climbing Polygonaceae in the Neotropics are endemic to this region, representing six genera which are also endemic or predominantly represented in the Neotropics.

- Caryophyllales
The Polygonaceae are a group of about 30 to 50 genera and more than 1000 species of caryophyllid flowering plants that are closely related to the Plumbaginaceae. Like most plants, but unlike most caryophyllids, the Polygonaceae have anthocyanin pigments.
Eriogonum is a genus of flowering plants in the family Polygonaceae. The genus is found in North America and is known as wild buckwheat. This is a highly species-rich genus, and indications are that active speciation is continuing.
Family: Polygonaceae — buckwheat family. Our New England species in the Polygonaceae are primarily herbs or vines. The leaves are usually alternate on the stem and may also grow in a rosette at the base of the plant.
