  • Comment on (A): Veratrum album L., white veratrum, Weißer Germer

    The plant name wēdeberie could also be used to denote Helleborus niger L., christmas rose, Christrose or Daphne mezereum L., mezereon, Gewöhnlicher Seidelbast, cf. →ceaster-æsc. Also cf. Erhardt-Siebold (1963,169): "The term wedeberge (= madberry), in its first part, undoubtedly refers to mental disorders which had been associated with the name hellebore since antiquity, while the second part clearly points to a berry-bearing plant."
