What is monkey flowers?

Any of the roughly 150 species of herbaceous or, rarely, shrubby plants belonging to the Phrymaceae family of lopseeds—previously all grouped under the umbrella name Mimulus—is referred to as a monkey flower, also spelled monkeyflower. Many species were transferred from Mimulus (now 7 species), Erythranthe (111 species), Diplacus (46 species), and other tiny genera in order to better portray evolutionary relationships. Although the plants are found all over the planet, western North America is where they are most prevalent. Many species are grown as ornamentals because of their lovely blossoms. Plants known as monkey flowers have solitary blooms with a two-lipped open corolla and opposing, undivided leaves (fused petals). Some species' flowers are rumored to resemble a monkey's face.
