Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Kyllinga (Peder Kylling, Danish botanist, died 1696). Cyperoceae. Annual and perennial herbs, of little value horticulturally although one species is sometimes mentioned in gardening literature. Grass-like or sedge- like plants of perhaps 30 species in many parts of the world, with very small fls. in spikelets which are aggregated into spikes or heads. K. monocephala, Rottb., is nearly glabrous with a creeping rhizome: lvs. drooping or arched, in a graceful tuft: culms. 3-angled: spikes terminal, ovoid or cone-shaped, silky, white, the subtending lvs. 3 and spreading-deflexed. India and other warm regions of the Old World, where it is common. This species is recommended for greenhouse work, Where, in 4-in. pots, it makes decorative specimens 1 ft. high, requiring a warm greenhouse temperature. G. 2:298; 25:173. Apparently not offered in this country. L. H. B.
