Teucrium fruticans L. Lamiaceae. Tree germander Distribution: Western Mediterranean. Teucrium is named after king Teucer (who lived in the era between 1400 and 1000 BC) the first King of Troy. Dioscorides named a medicinal herb after Teucer, and Linnaeus consolidated this in 1753; Gerard (1633) has 'Tree Germander, Teucrium latifolium, with Broad Leaves' and says it has the same uses as Germander, Teucrium chamaedrys, but less effective and little used.
