		The leaves are some times used in subacid infusions, and a decoction is said to destroy worms in children, and is also useful for jaundice, and externally as a wash for sore eyes and ulcers.
		The leaves are mostly of a deeper green, and have purplish foot-stalks and mid-ribs.
		The dried leaves are usually much shrivelled and wrinkled, and appear in commerce either loose, or more or less matted together, of a dark-greyish green colour, especially on the upper surface, stalked and often unequal at the base, and are characterized by the very coarse pointed teeth.

		---Description---The ivy-like leaves, some what thick in texture, and smooth, are cutup into five prominent, rounded lobes or divisions, and are on long stalks.
		Before fertilization each flower pushes itself out into the light and sun, standing erect, but when the seeds are mature, it bends downward, buries the capsule in the dark crannies between the stones on which it grows, the seeds being thus dispersed by direct action of the plant itself.
		This little Toadflax is in flower from May right up to November, and is visited only by bees.

		The leaves are either round-tipped or pointy tipped (there seem to be two varieties at least near where I live) and have five or seven lobes, I think, looking a little like Ivy, but they, again, are between 2mm and 5mm across, or occaionally slightly larger.
		We too have the upright Linaria types, but this one is Ivy Leaved Toadflax and is Cymbalaria muralis.
		Ivy-leafed is certainly a good description of the leaves, because I often mistake small ivy leaves with it at first when looking for it.

	Forum: Go easy on the weedkiller - Hazel Mackenzie advises authorities to tend their walls as well as their flowerbeds ...
		Our library is not an ugly building, but it is a trifle stark in its hewn stone, so the addition of greenery on its boundary wall was very pleasing.
		I was upset one day to discover that the flourishing patch of ivy-leaved toadflax (Cymbalaria muralis) growing on it had been sprayed by the parks department.
		The tidy-minded approach that decrees nature should have no hand in our urban landscape was in this case particularly ironic.
