description_en: Genus of one species of woody-based perennial, with several geographical variants, native to open woodland, dry grassland, and rocky sites, in C. and S. Europe, and from S. and C. Asia to China and Korea. It has pinnate, ash-like, alternate leaves, each with 3-6 pairs of leaflets and a single terminal leaflet. The 5-petalled, asymmetrical flowers, with long, projecting stamens, are borne in long, open racemes. They, and the unripe fruit, produce an aromatic, volatile oil, which may be ignited in hot weather. D. albus is suitable for a border. Its foliage, roots, and seeds may cause mild stomach upset if ingested, and contact with the foliage may cause photodermatitis.
