| Salicornia (Latin, salt and horn; saline plants with horn-like branches). Chenopodiaceae. Glasswort. Marsh Samphire. A group of about 12 widely scattered species of leafless seashore herbs, hardy or tender, annual or perennial. This and other chenopods which grow in large quantities in the Medit. region were formerly used in making soap and glass, as they yield a large percentage of soda. The ashes of such plants were known to the trade as barilla. The species have probably never been regularly in cult. and have no horticultural interest. | | Salicornia (Latin, salt and horn; saline plants with horn-like branches). Chenopodiaceae. Glasswort.
