Short etymology:
Gk. Silenos = a Greek woodland deity, half man, half horse or goat, companion of Dionysius, always portrayed as old, bald and bearded, and usually covered with foam or slaver; referring to the sticky secretion of the stems that entrap small insects, thus foiling predators. ‘Catchfly.’
