History, Use, Propagation, Culture, 
334. Symphytum. Named from ffvfju^vtri?, a union or junction, the plant having for a long time passed for a 
famous vulnerary. The French name for the plant, Consoude, has the same meaning ; but that of the English 
term Comfrey is obscure. S. officinale abounds in mucilage, and may be substituted for Althasa officinalis. 
All the species are large, coarse, but showy shrubbery plants, flowering for two or three months together, and 
S. asperrimum the whole season. 
335. Onosmodium. From Onosma and u^o;, similar to Onosma ; from which it is not very different either 
in habit or characters. 
■336. Cynoglossum. From xvmv %vvo;, a dog, and yXao-o-oc, a tongue. Its long soft leaves have been compared 
to the tongue of a dog. C. officinale smells like mice, was considered anti-scrophulous, and is disliked by cattle. 
337. Omphalodes. From ofju^aXi?, a navel, and u%o?, resemblance ; the round seeds, which are depressed in 
the centre, may be compared to a little navel ; for the same cause it is called Navelwort in English. O. linifolia 
is a common border annual. O. verna is a beautiful little plant with blue flowers, like the Forget-me-not, peei)- 
ing from among the snow in every cottager's garden in the early spring. 
338 Pulmonaria. Derives its name, some say, from the speckled appearance of the leaves resembling dis- 
eased lungs ; but others think that its name has arisen from the plant having been used with success in pulmo- 
nary complaints ; whence also, perhaps, the English name Lungwort. It must not, however, be inferred from
