WHITE MUSTARD

Picture of White Mustard

White mustard (Sinapis alba) is an annual herb of the family Cruciferae native to the Mediterranean region, with an erect, unbranched stem. The leaves are alternate, stalked, toothed, lyrate and deeply pinnately lobed with the terminal lobe being the largest. The flowers are yellow in colour and arranged in a raceme, the sepals spreading out horizontally below the petals. White mustard is widely cultivated for its oil, for fodder and for culinary mustard.
