Burnet (Potbrium Sanguisorba, Linn.). A hardy rosaceous perennial, the piquant Lvs. of which are sometimes used in flavoring soups and salads. The dried roots are occasionally used as a family remedy. Burnet is little known in this country as a condimental herb. It is worthy a place in the hardy border for the ornamental character of its odd-pinnate Lvs. and its little heads of fls. with drooping stamens. The Lfts. are very dark green, ovate and notched: sts. 1-2 ft. high, bearing oblong or globular monoecious heads. Of easiest cult., either from seeds or by division of the clumps. Native of Eu.
