Gilia liniflora, Benth. (G. linifolia, Hort.). Fig. 1637. Ten to 20 in. high, diffuse and branchy: lower lvs. mostly opposite, but the upper alternate, all palmately divided to the base in needle-like or spurrey-like divisions: fls. rather large for the size of the plant, the corolla white or blush,nearly rotate, the thin lobes obtuse. Calif. B. M. 5895.—A useful tufty garden annual. The name liniflora is meant to designate the resemblance of the fls. to those of Linum tenuifolium; but some catalogue- maker, evidently thinking that the name meant linear-flowered, and was therefore inappropriate or an error, has changed the name to G. linifolia, under which name it is known in the trade.
