Root fusiform, thick, white. Stem simple, but sometimes fur- 
nished with a few branches towards the top, furrowed, glabrous, 
but pilose at the base. Leaves usually glabrous, but sometimes 
hairy. Flowers nearly sessile, or pedicellate, erect, forming 
a long raceme, which is branched at the base. Corollas 
blue or white. This plant varies in the stem being glabrous or 
pilose, in the length of the pedicels, in the tube of the calyx 
being glabrous or strigose, in the calycine teeth being entire or 
a little denticulated at the base. The root is milky, thick, and 
edible, and, with the leaves, is mixed in salads; and, therefore, 
it was formerly cultivated for that purpose. In France and 
Italy the roots are boiled and eaten hot with sauce, or cold 
with vinegar and pepper. The seed is sown in the spring on 
deep light soils, in drills, and the plants are ready for use 
in the autumn of the same year. It is called Raperonzola in 
Italy ; Rapuncio, in Portugal; Raiponce, petite Raiponce, in 
rance; Rampion, and Small Rampion, in England; Rapunzel, 
Ruben, or Blau Bluhende Wurzel, Rapunzel, Purwitzlein, m 
ermany; Rzepeka, in Bohemia; and Akla Rapunzel, in 
weden.
