Origin: IE [Indo-European] [287] *h₁ed- to eat.
Etymology: Supposed to be the fem. of ἀγρώστης countryman, from ἀγρός. Bechtel Lex. s.v., Strömberg Pflanzennamen 117. Cf. also Kalitsunakis apud Kretschmer Glotta 3, 315f. Meier-Brügger, KZ 103 (1990) 33f. explains the word as *h₂eǵro-h₁d-tis Feld-Futter, which seems unobjectionable.

Parnassia palustris

Parnassia palustris, commonly called marsh grass of Parnassus, northern grass-of-Parnassus, or just grass-of-Parnassus, and bog star, is a flowering plant in the staff-vine family Celastraceae. It is the county flower of Cumberland in England, and appears on its flag. The name comes from ancient Greece: evidently the cattle on Mount Parnassus appreciated the plant; hence it was an "honorary grass". The species epithet palustris is Latin for "of the marsh" and indicates its common habitat. It was described by the Greek physician Dioscorides, growing up a mountain in 1st century A.D.

Hordeum marinum

Hordeum marinum, commonly known as sea barley or seaside barley, is a species of grass.
