Geum urbanum L. - Rosaceae - wood avens, cloveroot, herb Bennet, St. Benedict's herb, Echte Nelkenwurz, Benediktenkraut

Perennial herb, up to 1m tall, native to Europe, West Asia, Mediterranean, naturalized in Australia and Northern America; basal leaves long petioled, lyrate-pinnate to pinnate, cauline 3-foliolate, or simple and 3-lobed; flowers erect, petals yellow.

The scientific genus name Geum is probably based on the Greek verb geuein meaning 'taste' and refers (also like cloveroot and the german Nelkenwurz) to the clove-like scent of the rhizome (which contains eugenol).
