many thanks.. so I was wrong searching european plants. I wonder
why the greek already have a word for it. Must have been brought
to Greece then quite early last century.

And what do I learn again? Never trust the place you find a plant
these days.. *sigh*


Two ways for a Greek to get a name for some plant. 1) There has
always been a Greek name for it because it grows there. 2) Ask
someone that they are buying it from "what is that?" and either use
the reply or translate it into Greek.
