Garbe

GROSVENOR.
GROSVENOR.

Garbe, or Garb, (fr. gerbe): a wheat-sheaf. When a sheaf of any other grain is borne the name of the grain must be expressed; e.g. the barley-garbs in the Company of BREWERS(see Tun, and examples under Wheat).

From early times they are found of various tinctures. When the stalks are of one tincture and the ears of another, the term eared must be used with reference to the latter.
