Juniper (given name) "Benny & Joon" (where the Joon character was short for Juniper), Pamela Dean's novel "Juniper, Gentian, and Rosemary", and the Donovan song, "Jennifer Juniper". The Juniper tree's name is derived from the Latin word juniperus. In Latin, juniperus is combination of the word "junio," which means young, and "parere," to produce, hence youth producing, or evergreen. Ginepro (Italian for Juniper), Ginevra (Italian variant form of Juniper), and Ginny are other names that also refer to the Juniper tree. Juniper is used to flavour the alcoholic spirit gin. The traditional drink jenever and its French name "genièvre" are names for juniper.
Solanum crispum Solanum crispum Solanum crispum is a species of flowering plant in the Solanaceae family, native to Chile and Peru. Common names include Chilean potato vine, Chilean nightshade, Chilean potato tree and potato vine. Growing to tall, it is a semi-evergreen, woody-stemmed climbing plant. The small blue fragrant flowers, 2.5 cm in diameter, with prominent yellow ovaries, appear in clusters in summer. They resemble those of the closely related potato. Very small poisonous berries are produced in autumn. The berries start out green, then yellow-orange, and finally purple. The leaves are oval. The specific epithet "crispum" means "closely curled".
