−'''''Aconitum''''' ({{pron-en|ˌækəˈnaɪtəm}} ''[[Syllable stress of Botanical Latin|A-co-ní-tum]]''<ref>''Sunset Western Garden Book,'' 1995:606–607</ref>), known as '''aconite''', '''monkshood''', '''wolfsbane''', '''leopard's bane''', '''women's bane''', '''Devil's helmet''' or '''blue rocket''',<ref>[http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A4113983 BBC - h2g2 - Classic Poisons]</ref> is a [[genus]] of flowering [[plant]] belonging to the buttercup family ([[Ranunculaceae]]). There are over 250 [[species]] of ''Aconitum''.
−| common_names = Aconite, Monkshood
+These herbaceous [[perennial plant]]s are chiefly natives of the mountainous parts of the northern hemisphere, growing in moisture retentive but well draining [[soil]]s on mountain meadows. Their [[green|dark green]] [[Leaf|leaves]] lack stipules. They are palmate or deeply palmately lobed with 5–7 segments. Each segment again is 3-lobed with coarse sharp teeth. The leaves have a spiral or alternate arrangement. The lower leaves have long petioles.
−| growth_habit = herbaceous
+These are handsome plants, the tall, erect [[Plant stem|stem]] being crowned by [[raceme]]s of large and eye-catching [[blue]], [[purple]], [[white]], [[yellow]] or [[pink]] zygomorphic [[flower]]s with numerous [[stamen]]s. They are distinguishable by having one of the five petaloid [[sepal]]s (the posterior one), called the galea, in the form of a cylindrical helmet; hence the English name monkshood. There are 2–10 [[petal]]s, in the form of nectaries. The two upper petals are large. They are placed under the hood of the calyx and are supported on long stalks. They have a hollow spur at their apex, containing the [[nectar (plant)|nectar]]. The other petals are small and scale like or non forming. The 3–5 [[carpel]]s are partially fused at the base.
−The [[fruit]] is a [[Follicle (fruit)|follicle]], a follicle being a dry, unilocular, many-seeded fruit formed from one carpel, and dehiscing by the ventral suture in order to release seeds.
