Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture
Herniaria (Greek; supposed to cure hernia or rupture). Caryophyllaceae. Herniary. Rupture-wort. Trailing or sprawling little small-leaved herbs, one of which is grown as a carpenter. Herniaria has about 15 species, scattered from the Canaries to W. Asia, but all grow in sandy places, chiefly near the sea. It has no near allies of much garden value, but 2 species of Paronychia are cult, for the same purpose and are easily distinguished by general appearance. Herniaria and Paronychia are alike in their 5-parted perianth and 2 stigmas, but in Herniaria the segms. are blunt, while in Paronychia they are hooded near the apex and have a horn or small sharp point on the back near the apex. Herniaria is composed of annuals or perennials with roots of short duration, and they are all much branched, trailing plants, either glabrous or hirsute: lvs. opposite, alternate or clustered, small, entire: fls. minute, crowded in the axils; sepals, petals and stamens 5: seed solitary.
