* This plant is very much cultivated in Brabant, Holland, and Germany, as 
food for cattle, both when green and made into hay. 
+ Though Linnaeus hath given it the spe^jip name of umbellatum , it ought to 
have been corymbosum , for that is its mode of flowering; it seems very careful of 
/ its embryo, by the flowers shutting up very close, early in the evening, and in bad 
weather.
