Aruncus dioicus
Aruncus dioicus (Walt.) (goat's beard or bride's feathers) is a plant in the rose family, Rosaceae. It is a herbaceous plant with alternate, pinnately compound leaves, on thin, stiff stems. The flowers are white, borne in summer. This plant can be found throughout Europe, Asia, and eastern and western North America. It Italy the young shoots are eaten, usually boiled briefly in herb infused water,and then cooked with eggs and cheese.In Friuli it is one of the ingredients in the local home-made soup based on wild greens called 'pistic'. [1]
In the UK it is considered suitable for planting in and around water areas [2]
Aruncus dioicus var. kamtschaticus has shown potent cytotoxicity against Jurkat T cells.[3]
