noun spiderworts

A perennial plant of the Tradescantia genus, found in clumps in woodland and meadow. One morning she had me traipsing out at the crack of dawn for prickly poppy, toadflax, spiderwort, and skeleton weed. If that doesn't sound like the makings of a witch's brew, then I'm the queen of England.
