Notes:
NSMS260: S99 & S108." Gnaphlaium collinum. Re this plant. I am afraid I cannot get the position straight and separate it clearly from congeners - Gnaphalium luteo-album and Gnaphalium japonicum. Referance to our herbarium indicates that the `Great Masters' also had difficulty with the species - have not seen an authentic specimen. Perhaps the best means of delimitation is by the creeping and rooting stolons, but there again the other species, under some conditions have these very prominent." A.J. Healy 17 July 1944. One hermaphrodite per capitulum. [Dwarf varient. D.G. Drury, October 1970].
