Hello, Merry meet, Greetings, whatever comes to mind. :)

Well, as far as I am concerned, most of them micked names are in fact names 
of plants, as I have been told by a friend of mine which actually practices 
wizardry (Some of Wicca and the alike). He told me most of them plants had 
been either re-baptized or had their names either from their shapes (For what 
do they look alike) or for ancient wizards to confuse people so they would 
not "ban" on the plants them used for their things...

My humble two Galleons.
