FROSTWEED

An American species of rockrose (Helianthemum Canadense), sometimes used in medication as an astringent or aromatic tonic. It has big yellow flowers which are often sterile, and later it has abundant but inconspicuous flowers which bear seed. It is so called because, late in autumn, crystals of ice shoot from the cracked bark at the root. Synonym: frostwort. Source: Websters Vocabulary
