Apocynum androsaemifolium, Linn. Spreading Dog-bane. Three ft. or less high, usually glabrous, the branches spreading: lobes of corolla revolute and tube of corolla longer than the calyx: Lvs. oval or ovate, mucronate, short-petioled: cymes loose, axillary and terminal; fls. bell-like, white or pink. N. N. Amer.; common. B.M. 280.—Sold by dealers in native plants. Useful for the hardy border as it will stand dry open places. Root used in medicine; sometimes gathered by drug-collectors for A. cannabinum, but as its action is different, it should not be substituted.
