Out of the rich kafiiioulil, on separate stalks, s])ear shajied leaf buds aiieholdiii)j sun does not ji'i'^^' upon. They are stainless, without trace of the black nioultl which gives them birth. Dark decay is transformed to unsullied purity ! The l!l(H)droot has a red juice which flows if the ])lant be wounded ; hence the name, ,Sani;uinaiia. " SiinKidH'iriii, from wliose l>rittle stem Till- nil iln)]is f:ill like IiIimmI,"â wrote Bryant. One feels a RUilty sense of having murdered a living thing, when he plucks the blood root. The thick rootstcx-k is full of the vital fluid. This orange ri-d juice abounds in the I'oppy Kamily, though not usually of so vivid a color as in the .Sangninaria. It is very acri<l to the taste. The HKitstock was formerly much valued in medicine. Ours is the only sixx-ies of Sanguiuaria. â rh & I. PLATE 106. BUR ). BlDliNS L/HVIS (CHRYSANTHHMOIDHS). (SUNFLOWf-R FAMILY.)
