(Another name of the plant, of later appearance, is bog-bean, which may be a rationalizing alteration of buck-bean, unless, like bog nut, bog trefoil, it is quite independent in origin.)]
A water plant (Menyanthes trifoliata) common in bogs in Britain, and widely diffused over the northern hemisphere; it bears racemes of pinkish white flowers.
