Amer. Baccharis halimifolia and B. salicina are hardy North, while the evergreen species are more tender. They grow in almost any well-drained soil in a sunny position, and are well adapted for dry and rocky slopes, and valuable for seashore planting. Propagation is by seeds, or by cuttings under glass. B. glomeruliflora, Fers. Allied to B. halimifolia: heads axillary, solitary or clustered, sessile or nearly so: pappus somewhat shorter. N. C. to Fla.—B. patagonica, Hook. & Am.
