Beaked agrimony

Agrimonia rostellata

Summary 3

Also known as woodland agrimony, this wildflower's leaves grow on slender stems up to 3 feet tall (but usually 2 feet tall or less). Each leaf contains 3-9 leaflets which are thin and oblong with large coarse teeth. They have conspicuous glands on the underside but are otherwise without hairs or with short hairs on the veins beneath. The flowering and fruiting stem has glands on the surface and sometimes also a few straight bristles. The bottom half of the bell-shaped fruit is about 1/4" long and covered with glands but not hairy. The roots are sometimes tuberous and thickened but not fibrous.
