There is some doubt as to the status of this species, and 

 Watson places it among the denizens. It is well known in Glamorgan 

 as a vermifuge and consequently often grown in gardens. Its 

 occurrence in the wild state in and about thickets and copses gives 

 it the appearance of a true native.

The status of this plant has been called in question, especially 

 by Mr. Watson, who places it among the denizens. Had this 

 botanist ever examined the banks of the river Ely from Ely to 

 Llantrisant, I venture to think he would have given the species the 

 rank of a native, to which on account of its mode of occurrence in 

 this country and its distribution on the continent, it seems 

 thoroughly entitled.
