GLOBULARIA, GLOBULAR BLUE DAISY; a genus of the monogynia order, belonging to the tetrandria class of plants. There are several species; but only one is commonly to be met with in our gardens, viz. the vulgaris, or common blue daisy. It hath broad thick radical leaves, three parted at the ends, upright stalks from about six to ten or twelve inches high, garnished with speared-shaped leaves, and the top crowned by a globular head of fine blue flowers composed of many florets in one cup. It flowers in June, and makes a good appearance; but thrives best in a moist shady situation. It is propagated by parting the roots in September.
