Chelidonium majus, commonly known as the greater celandine or tetterwort is native to Europe and the Mediterranean basin. The sap is bright opaque yellow. The flowers comprise four yellow petals, each about 1 cm long, with two sepals. The flowers appear from May to July. The seeds are small and black, and possess an elaiosome, which attracts ants to disperse the seeds (myrmecochory).
