small burnet
Leaves, used in salads
Sanguisorba
 
minor
, 
the salad burnet,
 garden burnet, 
small burnet, or burnet, is a plant in the family 
Rosaceae that is native to western, central and
southern Europe; northwest Africa and
southwest Western Asia; and which has
naturalized in most of North America.
 It is a perennial herbaceous plant growing to 40–
90 cm tall, typically found in dry grassy meadows,
often on limestone soils. 
It is drought-tolerant, and grows all year around.
It is used as an ingredient in both salads and
dressings, having a flavor described as "
light
cucumber
" and is considered interchangeable
with mint leaves in some recipes, depending
on the intended effect. 
Typically, the youngest leaves are used, as
they tend to become bitter as they age.
Salad burnet has the same medicinal qualities as
medicinal burnet (
Sanguisorba
 
officinalis
).
 It was used as a tea to relieve diarrhea in the
past.
It also has a respectable history, called a favorite
herb by Francis Bacon, and was brought to the
New World with the first English colonists, even
getting special mention by Thomas Jefferson.
 
Lesser burnet (Poterium sanguisorba L. = Sanguisorba
minor Scop.) is an evergreen herbaceous perennial forage
plant that grows widely on poor soils in arid and cold areas.
Its nutritional quality is similar to alfalfa and sainfoin but
does
not induce bloat (Rodriguez and Bermejo 1986). This plant
has pinkish white flowers and is used as ornamental plant
and culinary herb for medicinal purposes.
The advantages are as a pasture / 
forage
crops
.
- It starts early in the spring.
- Resistant to cold and 
drought
.
- 
It c
an grow in many different 
soil type.
- Does not swell when grown in green.
- It is likely grazed by animals.
- The flavor is delicious, the feed value and the
digestion are high.
- Continue to grow in mid-autumn and in
autumn, extending the grazing period.
Determination of Yield and Some Characteristics of Lesser Burnet
(Sanguisorba
 
minor Scop.) Grown in Different Nitrogen Dozes and
Row Spacings
Abstract: 
This study was conducted to deterrnine the appropriate of row
spacing, nitrogen dozes and some
characteristics of lesser burnet in a "Split Plots in Randomized
Block" desing with 3 replications grown on shallow and
slopy lands in Samsun Province from 1995 to 1997. In this study O,
4, 8, 12 kg/da nitrogen dozes and 30, 45 cm row
spacings ware applied to plots. Two cuttings were taken both 1996
and 1997 under rainfed conditions. In the second
year (1997), the yields were increased significantly. Average 1970.4
kg herbage yield, 746.0 kg hay yield and 131.7 kg
crude protein yields per decar were obtained. The highest yields
ware obtained from the plots with 30 cm row spacing
and 8-12 kg/da nitrogen fertilization program.
