Agrimonia eupatoria is a species of agrimony that is often referred to as "common agrimony" or "church steeples". The whole plant is dark green with numerous soft hairs. The soft hairs aid in the plant's seed pods sticking to any animal or person coming in contact with the plant. The flower spikes have a nice spicy odor like apricots. Has been used since antiquity in herbal medicine.
