Reseda (from the Latin to calm; said to allude to supposed sedative properties). Resedaceae. One species is grown as a garden annual, and also under glass, for its pleasing fragrance: Mignonette, which see (Vol. IV, p. 2049).
Herbs (sometimes partially woody at the base) with alternate, simple or compound lvs., and terminal spikes of inconspicuous perfect fls., which have 4—7 small greenish toothed or cleft unequal petals and 8-40 small stamens attached on one side of the fl.: pistil 1, ripening into a 3-6-horned or -angled cap. that opens at the top at maturity (Fig. 3363), and contains several to many seeds. Only one species, the common mignonette (R. odorata), is generally known, but two or three other species are sometimes grown. Two other species are occasional weeds in the East,—R. Luteola, Linn., the dyer's weed (formerly used as yellow dye). 1-2 ft. tall, with entire lvs., 4 or 5 greenish petals of which the lowest one is entire; and R. lutea, Linn., with pinnatifid lvs. and petals usually 6; and two or three of the perennial species are more or less recommended as border plants. This genus contains 50-60 species, most of which are native to the Medit. basin, Arabia and Persia.
