'''''Sanguisorba canadensis''''', or '''Canadian burnet''', is a perennial in the family [[Rosaceae]] native to North America, commonly growing in bogs, swamps, and roadsides from Labrador to Georgia. It grows 4-5 ft. tall, with creamy white flowers that grow in cylindrical spikes. Unlike its close relatives, ''[[Sanguisorba officinalis]]'' (Great burnet) and ''[[Sanguisorba minor]]'' (Salad burnet), the leaves must be cooked to be eaten, in order to remove the bitterness.<ref>{{cite book|last=Gardner|first=Jo Ann|coauthors=Holly S.
