单词 | behen |
释义 | behenn. 1. A name which the old herbalists had received apparently from Arabic sources, without knowing to what plant it belonged, and which different authors consequently tried to identify with many different plants. In England it was chiefly affixed to the Bladder Campion (‘White Behen’), and Sea Lavender (‘Red Behen’).
