WHAT DOES BROOKWEED MEAN IN ENGLISH?

brookweed

Samolus

Samolus is a widely distributed genus of about a dozen species of water-loving herbs. According to the APG III classification, this genus belongs to the Primulaceae family in the order Ericales. It was considered as closely related to a clade comprising the Theophrastaceae, and was treated as part of that family or in its own monogeneric family, the Samolaceae. The APG III system does not recognize these families and instead includes all species formerly belonging to Theophrastaceae in the Primulaceae family.
