Definition
Resembling, consisting of, or relating to herbs; herbaceous or grass-like in nature.
Etymology
From Latin 'herbosus' via Old French 'herbeux,' using the suffix '-ous' meaning 'full of' or 'characterized by.' An alternative form to 'herbose' with similar meaning and origin.
Kelly Says
The distinction between 'herbous' plants and woody plants was crucial to early botanists organizing the plant kingdom—it's one of the first ways people learned to sort nature!
