About

"2. A common name of several succulent-leafed plants, chiefly of the genus Chenopodium (or Blitum), sometimes used as pot-herbs. The name is specifically given to good-King-Henry (C. Bonus-Henricus) and to Amarantus Blitum. The strawberry-blite, Chenopodium capitatum, is so called from its red fleshy clusters of fruit. The coast-blite, C. maritimum, is found in saline localities. The sea-blite, Suæda maritima, is a chenopodiaceous coast-plant with nearly terete or cylindrical fleshy leaves." --Century Dictionary
