History, Use, Propagation, Culture, 
1436. Eruca. The meaning of this word is involved in obscurity. According to Isidore, of Seville, a learned 
Spaniard, who died in 636, and left a book of etymologies, cruca is an alteration of urica, derived from uro, 
to burn. From eruca, the Italians formed ruchetta, the French roquetta, and the English rocket. E. sativa is 
very pungent in the foliage, and is used as a salad in the South of Europe for its aphrodisiacal powers : 
" Excitat ad venerem tardos Eruca maritos.'" 
1437. Fella. Latinized from valer, the Gallic name of the cress. A pretty low shrub, with beautiful yellow 
flowers appearing in the early spring. It is hardy enough to live through the winter in a dry warm south 
border. 
1438. Carrichtera. An unexplained name, first used by Adanson. A small annual plant, with pinnated 
leaves, and long erect racemes opposite to the leaves. Flowers small, pale yellow. 
1439. Succowia. In honor of Professor Suckow, a learned botanist of Heidelberg. An annual, with the 
habit of the last, from which it differs in its subulate style and solitary seed.s. 
1440. Zilla. The Egyptian name of the plant, which is a large glabrous herb, with round white branches 
and oblong toothed leaves, which are boiled and eaten by the Arabs like those of cabbage. 
1441. Calepina. A name used by Adanson, the meaning of which is unknown. This plant has been trans- 
ferred by one author or another to almost every genus of SiliculosEe, but appears to be really akin to Crambe 
only, from which it differs in its sessile and purely unilocular silicle, in its stamens having no teeth, and in 
the outer petals being larger than the others. 
1442. Crambe. One of the names applied by the Greeks to the cabbage, and especially to the marine 
cabbage. C. maritima grows on sandy shores in the west of England, and there the common people have from 
time immemorial been in the practice of watching when the shoots and leafstalks begin to push up the sand
