Perennial. — Flowers from July to September. 
Root thick and woody, of a reddish colour, sending out long fibres. 
Stems somewhat shrubby, about 2 feet high, smooth, slightly 
winged on opposite sides (fig. 5.), branched towards the top. Leaves 
opposite, sessile, egg-shaped, or somewhat heart-shaped, widely 
spreading, glaucous on the under side, and reticulated with numerous 
veins, which become through age of a reddish or purple colour : the 
lower leaves are generally the least. Panicle terminal, upright, 
forked, many-Howered, with angular, or winged, smooth Stalks. 
Flowers of a yellowish colour, about an inch wide, with 3 sets of 
Stamens (fig. 1.), and as many Styles. The 3 outer segments of 
the calyx are the largest. Berry purplish-black when ripe ; imper- 
fectly 3-celled. The leaves and other parts of the plant have an aro- 
matic scent when rubbed The French call this plant Toute-seine, 
All-heal ; whence its English name Tutsan. The name of Park 
Leaves has been applied to it, from its being frequently found in 
Parks +. 
“ It is often admitted into gardens; and was formerly esteemed for 
its medical qualities as a vulnerary, the leaves readily healing any 
fresh wounds. The leaves, given in substance, were supposed to de- 
stroy worms. By distillation they yield an essential oil. The dried 
plant boiled in water, with alum, dyes yarn of a yellow colour ; and 
the Swedes give a fine purple tinge to their spirits with the flowers. 
Cows, goats, and sheep eat it ; horses and swine refuse it.” With. 
t TJrido Hypericorum, DC. FI. Fr. is parasitic on the under surface of the 
leaves of this species about Oxford. It is new to the British Flora. — See
