Bryonia dioica, Jacq. Bryony. Height 6-12 ft.: root long, fleshy, branching, white, a finger's thickness: Lvs. ovate or roundish in outline, 5-lobed, margin wavy-toothed, rough with callous points, paler beneath: pistillate fls. greenish white, corymbose, short-peduncled.—Common in England and in Cent, and S. Eu., rarer in W. Asia and N. Afr. Not usually sold in Amer., but a common plant along English highways and cult, in American botanic gardens. It grows rapidly over hedges and fences. Root of this and of B. alba are employed principally as a hydragogue-cathartic. The fresh, bruised root applied to the skin causes vesication.
