BlitesFamily: N.O. Chenopodiaceae---Habitat---They grow only on seashores, or in saline plains and other places where the soil is impregnated with salt, and are almost exclusively confined to the temperate and tropical regions of the Northern Hemisphere, very few being found in the Southern.The Sea-blites are members of the genus Suaeda, the name derived from the Greek word for soda, in which the plants abound. They are smooth or downy herbaceous, or more frequently shrubby, plants, with alternate, somewhat tapering, fleshy, stalkless leaves, bearing solitary or clustered stalkless or short-stalked, usually perfect flowers in their axils. Their fruits, utricles, are enclosed in the slightly enlarged or inflated berry- like calyx, but do not adhere to it. © Copyright Protected 1995-2004 botanical.com |
