Sullivantia (William S. Sullivant, American bryologist). Saxifragaceae. Slender perennial herbs, useful in wild-gardens and for colonizing, but scarcely in cult. Four species are now recognized, all natives in the U. S., mostly local, allied to Saxifraga: rootstock horizontal, short: fls. perfect, white or whitish, regular, small, in a panicle on a nearly leafless scape-like st.: lvs. mostly basal, reniform to orbicular, shallowly lobed and coarsely toothed, long-petioled: sepals 5; petals 5, clawed; stamens 5, the filaments subulate, shorter than the petals; carpels united below the beaks, forming erect follicles, the seeds winged. S. Sullivantii, Brit. (Saxifraga [?] Sullivantii, Torr. & Gray. Sullivantia ohionis, Torr. & Gray). Fl.-st. 6-16 in. high, growing on limestone cliffs in Ohio and Ind. S.
