It has long stemmed heart-shaped leaves, which are 4-12 in (10–30 cm) long. In the centre of the leaf, is the flowering stem. The stem holds a solitary white flower, blooming between July and October. The flower has 5 stamens around the centre. The flower produces a honey-like scent to attract pollinators.[6] Range and distributionParnassia palustris is native to northern temperate parts of Eurasia.[7] Found in wet moorlands and marshes of northern England and Scotland.[6]UsesIt was once used in herbal medicines, to treat disorders of the liver. Also an infusion of the leaves, (similar to a tea) was used to treat indigestion. When added to wine or water, the leaves are claimed to dissolve kidney stones.[6] References1. ^{{cite web |title=BSBI List 2007 |publisher=Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland |url=http://www.bsbi.org.uk/BSBIList2007.xls |format=xls |accessdate=2014-10-17 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6VqJ46atN?url=http://www.bsbi.org.uk/BSBIList2007.xls |archivedate=2015-01-25 |df= }} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=PAPA8|title=Plants Profile — Parnassia palustris L., marsh grass of Parnassus|publisher=U.S. Department of Agriculture — Natural Resources Conservation Service|accessdate=3 February 2010}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Cumberland Flag|url={{Flag Institute|Cumberland}}|publisher=Flag Institute|accessdate=8 October 2017}} 4. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.plantlife.org.uk/wild_plants/plant_species/grass-of-parnassus/|title= Grass-of-Parnassus|author= |date= |work= |publisher= Plantlife|accessdate=10 December 2010}} 5. ^Archibald William Smith {{google books|ahNMkgoNJ7IC|A Gardener's Handbook of Plant Names: Their Meanings and Origins|page=258}} 6. ^1 2 3 {{cite book|last1=Press|first1=J.
