Psoralea bituminosa (Bitumen pea) "A polymorphic plant which often forms dense stands along the sides of roads. The stem is slender, erect, and has leaves with three elongated, lanceolate, and long-stalked leaflets. The flowers are blue-violet, with hairy calyces in almost round heads which have a very long flower stalk and grow on the axils of the leaves. The plent is easily recognized by the characteristic smell of tar which it emits. Common on roadsides, ditches, and in fallow fields."
