Rubia (Latin, red; referring to the color of the dye extracted from the <br />
root). Rubiaceae. Mostly hardy herbs, sometimes shrubby at base, of <br />
little horticultural worth, but one, R. tinctorum, is of economic <br />
value.<br />
<br />
Plants frequently rather stiff, hispid, or aculeate: lvs. in whorls of <br />
4-8 or very rarely opposite and stipulate, sessile or petioled, <br />
lanceolate or obovate, rarely cordate: fls. small or minute, in <br />
axillary or terminal cymes, 5-merous; involucre none; calyx-tube ovoid <br />
or globose, limb lacking; corolla rotate or subcampanu- late; ovary <br />
2-celled or through abortion 1-celled: fr. didymous, fleshy, 2- rarely <br />
1-celled.—About 40 species, Medit. region, Trop, and S. Afr.f Temp. <br />
Asia, Trop, and S. Temp. Amer. R. tinctorum is the dye-plant called <br />
madder, the long, fleshy roots of which are ground to powder. Madder is <br />
said to furnish a good green fodder if cut the second year when in <br />
flower.<br />
