Trees, Shrubs, and Plants of Virgil 



Veccia, Vicia. 



Veladro, Helleborus. 



Vena, Avena. 



Verbena, Verbena,

Violaccio bianco, Viola 



[Stock]. 

 Vischio (Viscum). 



Visciolo, Cerasus. 

 Vita, Vitis. 



Zafferano, Crocus.

This list is compiled from Arcangeli, with a good many 

 additions. The word scacciabile seems not to be in the dictionaries, 

 nor have I ever seen it written. I have been told that Medicago 

 arborea is called cytiso, but Arcangeli does not give it, and it 

 seems to be used of an exotic. For Saliunca I have not heard or 

 found any name.
