The Latin name for Jojoba is Simmondsia chinensis which translates from (botanical) Latin as 'Chinese Simmondsia', ...but this plant isn't from China! The botanist describing the species read the collection information wrong, ...or the collector wrote the information illegibly. Simmondia chinensis is native to Arizona, southern California, New Mexico, southern Utah, and northern Mexico.

The monotypic genus was formerly placed in the Boxwood Family (Buxaceae), but is now correctly placed in its own monotypic family, Simmondsiaceae. Many people are familiar with Jojoba because the high-grade wax ester from its seeds, known as jojoba oil, is used in fine cosmetics.

Even though a lot of people like jojoba oil, I find it sub par for the natural cosmetics I make. I preffer to use almond or coconut oil. Its always interesting to learn more about the various plants though.
