carlinen.²

Brit.

/ˈkɑːlʌɪn/,

/ˈkɑːlɪn/, U.S.

/ˈkɑrˌlaɪn/

Etymology: < French carline, Spanish carlina, Italian carlina, and medieval Latin carlina, reputed to be for Carolina, from the emperor Karl or Carolus Magnus (Charlemagne)—‘Herba quam Carolinam vocant, quod Magno quondam Carolo divinitus ostensa fuerit, adversus pestiferam luem salutaris’ (Ruelle c1525 in Du Cange).

A genus of Composite plants, closely allied to the thistles, and hence generally called Carline Thistle. The common species ( Carlina vulgaris) grows on dry soil, and is conspicuous for the straw-coloured, hygrometric involucre which surrounds the dull purple disk of the flower.
