Aplectrum hyemale, Nutt. (A. spicatum, B. S. P.). Putty Root. Adam-and-eve. Fig. 234. Sends up a pointed green lf. 2-6 in. long, which lasts through the winter, and in spring a stalk about a foot high, bearing a raceme of rather large greenish brown fls., which are succeeded by hanging, oblong-pointed pods (Fig. 234).—Hardy. May be grown in rich, loamy borders. Interesting, but not showy.
