The great Odermennig ( Agrimonia procera ), also fragrant Odermennig , is a species in the subfamily of the Rosoideae . Agrimonia procera may have originated in culture. It used to be used as a medicinal plant.
Description and ecology
The Große Odermennig is a deciduous, rosette-free, perennial herbaceous plant ( hemicryptophyte ) that reaches heights of 50 to 180 centimeters. It forms a rhizome . The underside of the leaves is green to gray-green, slightly hairy and never tomentose. There are numerous sedentary glands with an aromatic lemon-like scent. The petals are mostly sanded. Bell-shaped aggregate fruits are formed, the upper half of which can be furrowed wide and shallow to almost not furrowed.
The flowering period extends from June to August. There is insect pollination or self-pollination instead. The fruits are spread by Velcro spread.
The number of chromosomes is 2n = 56.
Occurrence
The Große Odermennig has a sub-Atlantic-sub-Mediterranean distribution area. With a few exceptions in West Asia , its area is limited to all of Europe ; it extends from Central, Western and Southern Europe north to southern Finland and east to Ukraine . It shares the same northern border as Agrimonia eupatoria , but is otherwise more common than this one. In Germany, this species is widespread in Schleswig-Holstein, rare in Baden-Württemberg, Thuringia and Saxony and scattered in the rest of the federal states.
The Großer Odermennig grows on the edges of fresh forests and hedges, on forest paths and on ruderal sites such as roadsides, railway systems and quarries. He avoids lime. In the Allgäu and its surroundings, it climbs up to 1,320 m at the summit of the Hittisberg in Vorarlberg.
Taxonomy
The first description of Agrimonia procera was made in 1841 by Frederick William Wall Roth . A synonym for Agrimonia procera Wallr. is Agrimonia odorata auct. non Mill.
