Field scabious (Knautia arvensis)
Several species of Knautia have been documented in Great Britain. The largest of these, field scabious, grows in meadows and by the roadside and its large flowers are particularly attractive to butterflies. The generic name, Knautia, is derived from a Saxon botanist of the seventeenth century, Dr. Knaut. The name Scabious is supposed to be connected with the word 'scab' (a scaly sore), a word derived from the Latin scabies (a form of leprosy). Field scabious was used to treat scabies in sheep and to cure carbuncles and skin sores, coughs, shortness of breath as well as other diseases of the lung in humans. The Welsh name for the plant is Clafrllys.
