Morning Glory (fam:Convolvulaciae)
All the connvolvuli have purgative qualities to a greater or lesser degree. In the UK we have 3 basic variants-field ,hedge and sea coast specialists.The specific Morning Glory that is refered to as a medicinal herb is the Syrian Bindweed (C duratinus), administered as a few grains to achieve a violent puging of the gut.
Again this is a entry related to the Ligurian thread
Illustrated is the British Hedgerow variant
