* Dodder (cuscuta) is a very singular plant, it takes root from seed like other 
plants; but soon perishes if it is not near some other plant to support it, around 
which it twines and entangles itself in a very complicated manner ; the root then 
soon withers away, and it is supported by the plant around which it twines; hence 
called a parasitical plant: it has no leaves,—See cuscuta.
