The country formerly known as Ceylon is now named Sri Lanka.
Today's Question:
What herb is derived from the crocus.
I don't know this one, though I must say I did not realize flower parts can be considered herbs. Upon further reading I found an herb is a plant part used as medicine, for cooking, or as perfume--rather than being a specific whole plant of a certain type.
