The Botany

The name of the genus honors Saint Veronica, who is said to have given a cloth to Jesus to wipe his face on the way to Calvary, with some plants in the genus having markings that resemble those of the sacred cloth.

The specific epithet in Latin means thorny, referring to the floral spikes of this plant."
