Diotis maritima Cass, 

 Gnaphalium marinum. 20 Augusti 1621 



Gerard pag: 515. The i & a are both one. 



The root is longe slender yealowish vvoodic and groweth deepe 

 in the sande or gravell, and sendcth forth many small round branches 

 and those againe dcvided into other branches about half a foot 

 longe, besett with small short blunt topped leaves growinge all 

 alongest the stalk very thick together, without footstalks. The 

 whole herbe both branches & leaves are covered over with a thick 

 white delicate softe cotten like Gnaphalium Americanuni, called in 

 English ' live ever ' much whiter softer and more cottonic then anie 

 of the other Cotton-weeds. Of a bitter tast and pleasant smell, 

 somethinge like to sea wormewood. H The flowers I observed not. 



I found one plant hereof growinge on the seashoare on the south 

 parte of the Hand of Haylinge in Hampsheire, the 20''' of August 

 162 1. And brought it into my garden where the winter foUowinge 

 it perished. — MS. f. 103.

This hath one verie longe whitish root of the bignes of a wheate 

 strawe, sett here and there with small threeds, creapinge farr into 

 the sand or sea baich, which a little within the soile sendeth forth 

 manie weake smooth greene branches sometimes devided into other 

 branches three or fower ynches longe above the grounde, bearinge 

 many smooth grasse greene short small leaves ; somewhat round 

 yet sharpe at the toppe, a little resemblinge Rubia minor flore rnbro. 

 There groweth at the topps of the branches very small whitish 

 flowers * contayninge 5 little round topped leaves a peece, no bigger 

 then a pinns head, which perished without bearinge any seed at all. 



II This I found on the sea shoare in the west parte of the Hand 

 of Haylinge in Hampsheire and in other places by sea likewise. 

 I brought it into my garden where it flovvred as aforesaid about the 

 midle of May.— ^^5. f. 1 03.
