    Both the Latin and common names are related to flax.  Linaria comes from “linum” which is Greek for “flax” and toadflax includes the word “flax.”  The leaves of Linaria purpurea resemble flax leaves.  According to 17th century English herbalist, John Parkinson, the plant “causes one to make water.”  Grown by Tradescant the Elder, 1634.  American garden cultivation since 1800’s.
