Trilisa (anagram of Liatris). Compositae. Autumn-blooming plants 2 to 3 feet high, with numerous small, purple or white, rayless flower-heads. Closely related to Liatris, from which it differs in the fibrous roots (those of Liatris being tuberous): the infl. panicled instead of racemose or spicate, and the involucral bracts in only 2 or 3 series, while those of Liatris are in many series.—Two species. Trilisa is not so well known to gardens as the liatris. Although a native of the low pine barrens from Va. to Fla. and La., it is hardy at N. Y., along the coast. It is mentioned in some English books as a hardy plant, thriving in light soil and prop. by division or by seeds sown in autumn. It is more fully described in the native botanies. CH
