Agrimonia procera Wallr. - syn.Agrimonia odorata Miller - Rosaceae
fragrant agrimony, Großer Odermennig, Wohlriechender Odermennig
Erect perennial herb, very similar to A.eupatoria but much less common, 0.50-1.80m high, native to Europe, also cultivated; leaves underneath covered with scented glands; flowers yellow; fruit lower spines bent downwards.
The dried aboveground parts are also a source of 'Agrimoniae herba' (used to treat mucosal inlfammations of the troat and acute diarrhoea) like that of of A.eupatoria.
„It is similar to A.eupatoria but can easily be distinguished by its fragrant smell.“
[Medicinal Plants of the World. Ben-Erik Van Wyk and Michael Wink, Pretoria 2004, 36]
Radical scavenging capacity of Agrimonia eupatoria (Agrimony) and Agrimonia procera (Fragrant agrimony) extracts varied in a wide range. Extracts isolated with polar solvents (acetone/n-BuOH and acetone/water) were characterised as possessing higher value.
