St. Andrew's Cross (Hypericum hypericoides (L.) Crantz)
Also known as low st. johnswort; also classified as Hypericum stragulum P.B.Adams & N.Robson = Hypericum hypericoides subsp. multicaule (Michx. ex Willd.) N.Robson.
Some authorities separate the dwarf subspecies which we treat as subsp. multicaule into its own species, which they call Hypericum stragulum. We follow the scheme of POWO and most authorities, treating it as a subspecies.
