The '''Globe-flower''' (''Trollius europaeus'') is a [[perennial plant]] of the family [[Ranunculaceae]]. It grows up to 60 cm high with a bright yellow, globe-shaped [[flower]] up to 3 cm across. The colourful petaloid [[sepal]]s hide 5-15 inconspicuous true [[petal]]s with [[nectar]]ies at their base and, typically for the family, a large number of [[stamen]]s. Each flower produces a large number of wrinkled [[follicle (fruit)|follicles]]. The leaves are deeply divided into 3-5 toothed lobes. It grows in damp ground in shady areas, woodland and scrub, flowering between June and August. The plant is native of [[Europe]] and Western [[Asia]]. Protected species in Bulgaria. It's slightly poisonous and is [[purgative]] and [[rubefacient]] when used fresh. {{Inc| Trollius europaeus, Linn. (T. globosus, Lam.).
