Flowers white in terminal, forked, aggregate, compound
panicles, with perfectly smooth, slender but not capillary
stalks. Segments of the corolla spreading, each tipped
with a taper point of its own substance, not with a real
bristle. Seeds becoming kidney-shaped as they ripen, with
a central vacancy, smooth or slightly granulated.”—Smith.
Sir J . E. Smith in some following observations shows
this to be the true G. aristatum of Linnaeus, and distinct
From G. sylvalicum, whose “ fruit is a small double globe.”
—J. D. C. S.
