A genus of small herbaceous plants in the cabbage family, also known as wart-cress or swine-cress.
From Greek korone (crown) + pous (foot), literally 'crown-foot,' referring to the plant's crown-like seed pods or leaf arrangement.
Coronopus got its Greek name because medieval botanists thought its tiny seed pods looked like little crowns arranged in a foot-like pattern—sometimes the most accurate plant names are just creative descriptions!
