Globularia (the flowers in small, globular heads). Globulariaceae. Herbs, subshrubs and shrubs, with small blue flowers mostly in spherical heads.

Leaves from the root or alternate, leathery, entire or with a few sharp tooth: fls. small, blue, in dense heads; calyx 5-lobed, sometimes obscurely 2-lipped; corolla-tube usually short, broad at the throat, the lobes oblique or unequal; stamens 4, didynamous, attached at the throat: fr. small, included in the calvx. —About a dozen species from the Old World. Probably the commonest and best species is G. tricosantha, which thrives at the front of well-drained borders, but is particularly showy in the rockery. For this and G. vulgaris and its forms, rather moist but well-drained soil and partial shade are advised. Prop, by division or seed.
