Statice (Greek name meaning astringent, given by Pliny to some herb). Syn., Armeria, Auth., not Linn, (see Vol. I, p. 395). Plumbaginaceae. Sea-pink. Thrift. Interesting hardy border perennials, biennials, and annuals useful for both the many-flowered bright inflorescence and the stiff more or less evergreen foliage; flowers blue, lilac, white, yellow.
The genus Statice as defined by Linnaeus, "Genera Plantarum," ed. 5 (1754), is based on Statice, Tourn., and Limonium, Tourun: Statice of Tournefort is the Armeria of later authors, while Limonium of Tournefort is the Statice of later authors and of Linnaeus in part. Consequently, in dividing the Linnaean genus we must retain the name for that part of it which represents the origin of the name, which is exactly what Miller did in "The Gardener's Dictionary," ed. 8 (1768), retaining the name Statice for those species with a globular head and reestablishing Limonium as the generic name of those species with an open inflorescence. This treatment is accepted by most recent authorities although it is not followed by Pax in Engler & Prantl's "Naturlichen Pflanzenfamilien."
Although the individual flowers are small, some of the sea-pinks are very showy because of the great numbers of clustered blossoms and the brilliant colors. The flowers are often scarious and may be treated as everlastings. The evergreen or semi-evergreen character of the tufted foliage also adds much interest. The plants are easy to grow, remaining for some years when well established, rooting deep. Usually grown from seed.
