DESCRIPTION

AND ORIGINS

The word Sativum derives from Latin "serere"  which means "to sow" and lepidium meaning "delicate", "gentle", probably for its small size bright green leaves. Also, the word cress, very similar in German and English, comes from the old Germanic "cresso" which means sharp and spicy.
