Excerpt from Medicinal Plants, Vol. 2 of 4: Being Descriptions With Original Figures of the Principal Plants Employed in Medicine and an Account of the Characters, Properties, and Uses of Their Parts and Products of Medicinal Value; Nos. 70-146, Leguminosae to Valerianaceae Habitat - This familiar and beautiful shrub is very common throughout this country on heaths and open places, and in woods, often growing in great quantity and forming a marked feature in the vegetation of many sandy districts, especially noticeable in May and June when covered with its brilliant scented flowers. It is found in equal abundance throughout Western Europe, but becomes rare in the central and eastern parts, and in the Mediterranean countries. It, however, occurs in Italy and in Central and Southern Russia, extending even into Siberia. The five prominent wing-like angles which give so striking a character to the young twigs are remarkably persistent, and can be traced on the very oldest stems; as the stem increases in thickness they become of course more widely separated, and at length appear as distant arching ridges, the summit of each arch marking the point of attachment of a leaf.
