Restio (Latin, rope, alluding to the use made of the plants in S.
Afr.). Restiaceae. Perennial herbs with a tufted or creeping rootstock,
of little horticultural significance: sts. terete, compressed or
4-sided, with remote sheathing lf.-sheaths, usually more or less
mucronate, sometimes prolonged into a linear blunt lf.: male and female
infl. similar or dissimilar, spicate, spikes solitary or spikelets
numerous in spicate or panicled cymes; fls. dioecious, 1-bracteate;
perianth usually of 6, sometimes 4 segms. in 2 rows, rarely none; ovary
2- or 3-celled: caps. 2- or 3-celled, or by abortion 1-celled, 1 seed
in each cell. About 170 species, half of them from S. W. Afr. the
remainder from S. W. Austral. R. subverticillatus, Mast. Sts. erect,
3—4 ft. high, with verticillate branches: sheaths about 1 in. long,
coriaceous, striate above, membranous, spreading, acuminate, smaller
sheaths foliaceous from beneath a 2-lobed hyaline apex:
perianth-segms., male, broadly oblong, the lateral villous-keeled,
female broader: caps, obliquely ovate, 1-celled, 1-seeded. S. Afr. G.M.
