Branching herbs: Lvs. alternate, mostly 3-folioIate: corolla papilionaceous, the standard not larger than the wings: calyx campanulate, the 5 teeth separate and equal or the 2 upper ones united: stamens 10, distinct: pod stalked in the calyx.—Plants usually turn black in drying.
Baptisias thrive in any ordinary soil and under common treatment, preferring free exposure to sun. Propagation is by division or seeds.
