Seller's Description
Original 1872 6 1/2 inch x 9 7/8 inch coloured print titled CATABROSA AQUATICA. WATER WHORL-GRASS.
Catabrosa aquatica, called brookgrass, water whorl-grass, water whirlgrass and water hairgrass, is widespread species of semi-aquatic grass in the genus Catabrosa, native to the most of the non-tropical northern hemisphere, and to southern Chile and Argentina. As its scientific and common names suggest, it prefers to grow in wet areas, such as meadows, stream banks and lake shores.

From a disbound copy of English Botany; or, Coloured Figures of British Plants edited by John T. Boswell Syme
