Antennaria (pappus likened to antennae). Compositae. Everlasting. Cat's-ear. Ladies' Tobacco. Pussy's Toes. Field herbs, sometimes offered by dealers in native plants.

Small, white-woolly perennial plants, with spatulate or obovate root-lvs., and mostly leafless scapes, bearing small gray or white heads which remain stiff and dry: fls. dioecious, the staminate forms rare in cult., all tubular.—None is showy. They are interesting for rock- work and the edges of borders, and for this purpose have been sparingly intro. in the last few years. They are perfectly hardy, and thrive in poor soil. The fls. are often cut before fully mature and dried (and often dyed) as everlastings. About 20 species grow wild. Prop, mostly by division of the mats; also by seeds. Allied to Anaphalis and Gnaphalium, both of which are leafy stemmed plants quite distinct from the prostrate, stemless antennarias, which send up only a bracted scape, except in A.racemosa. See Everlastings.

A. margaritacea. Anaphalis, margaritacea.
