Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Microglossa (small tongue, because the ligules are short). Compositae. Nine or 10 Asiatic and African shrubs, sometimes climbing, allied to Erigeron and Aster, very little grown: lvs. mostly entire and alternate: fls. in small corymbose or panicled heads with very small white or bluish rays; ray-fls. in 1 to many series, pistillate and fertile; disk-fls. perfect and fertile, with 3-4 toothed dilated limb.; involucre of many- rowed narrow bracts, the outer shorter; receptacle flat, nearly or quite naked: achene angled, bearing copious slender pappus-hairs. M. albescens, Clarke (Aster albescens, Wall.), occurs in horticultural literature: erect, with faintly grooved branches: lvs. lanceolate, entire, or slightly serrate, hoary beneath: heads 1/3 in. diam.. with bluish or whitish ligules. Temperate Himalaya. R.H. 1907, p. 523.
