Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Orobus (an old Greek name). Leguminosae. A genus not now kept separate, and referred mostly to Lathyms, from which it was distinguished largely by its erect habit and lack of tendrils; some of the species now go to Vicia. Five species-names were found by Beal (Study of Genus Lathyrus, Cornell Bulletins) to be offered by American seedsmen: O. niger (-Lathyrus niger), O. vernus (-Lathyrus vernus), O. lathyroides (probably-Vicia oroboides), and O. albus and O. superbus which are probably horticultural forms of Lathyrus vernus. Abroad there are also listed O. aurantiacus, which may be Vicia aurantia; O. canescens, O. azureus, O. varius, O. Smithii with "creamy yellow fls., dwarf grower," which probably belong in Lathyrus.
