Hubflower Plant (Fallout 4)

Ranunculacae serranus, commonly called hubflower in the Commonwealth, or soot flower in Appalachia.

Characteristics
The herbaceous plant is a mutated variant of the Ranunculacae species, prolific before the Great War as hubflowers in the Commonwealth and soot flowers in Appalachia. They are now sizable bushes with large, hanging, bitter-tasting purple flowers that have restorative effects.

They can also be processed into a variety of curatives, ranging from herbal teas and pastes, salves, and a variety of drugs. Because of the inherent bitterness of the flower, ingesting of the flower requires additional ingredients to create palatable tea.

Behind the scenes
The real world Ranunculaceae genus is commonly known as a "buttercup" flower.
