Orobanche rapum-genistae, the greater broomrape, is a plant species
in the genus Orobanche. O. rapum-genistae contains verbascoside and
orobanchoside. Broomrape or Broom-rape (Orobanche) is a genus of
over 200 species of parasitic herbaceous plants in the family
Orobanchaceae, mostly native to the temperate Northern Hemisphere.
Some species formerly included in this genus are now referred to
the genus Conopholis. The broomrape plant is small, from 10-60 cm
tall depending on species. It is best recognized by its
yellow-to-straw coloured stems completely lacking chlorophyll,
bearing yellow, white or blue, snapdragon-like flowers. The flower
shoots are scaly, with a dense terminal spike of 10-20 flowers in
most species, though single in O. uniflora. The leaves are merely
triangular scales. The seeds are minute, tan-to-brown, and blacken
with age.
