Note that the sweetgrass used in these baskets - <i>Muhlenbergia filipes -</i> is not the same plant as the sweetgrass used in the Native American tradition - <i>Hierochloe odorata.</i> A cause for some confusion. And I would disagree with the article&#039;s statement that the technique used in Gullah baskets is unusual. Coilng is a very widespread method of making basketry.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
