Definition
A plant with blue ball-shaped flower clusters, or slang for the painful condition of sexual frustration.
Etymology
Compound of 'blue' and 'ball.' The plant meaning dates to botany texts; the slang meaning emerged in 20th-century colloquial English.
Kelly Says
The blueball plant actually gets its name from the way its flowers cluster into perfect spheres, and somehow that innocent botanical fact got borrowed into slang that'll make you blush!
