Любопытна этимология латинского родового названия вербейников — Лизимахия (Lysimachia). Оно дано по имени Лисимаха (род. ок. 360 г. до н.э.) — военачальника и телохранителя Александра Македонского, впоследствии правителя Македонской Фракии. По утверждению Плиния, Лисимах первым нашёл и описал вербейник.

The etymology of the Latin generic name of loosestrife - Lysimachia (Lysimachia) is curious.

According to Pliny, Lysimachus was the first to find and describe loosestrife.

“Moony, he rejected me again!”
“That’s a shame.”
James spun around in his chair to pout at Remus. “I’m serious, I think I might be single forever!” James sputtered.
Remus looked up from his book and raised an eyebrow at James. “With that attitude, I agree.” He hummed and returned to his book, absentmindedly continuing the conversation with, “Just keep trying, yeah?”
James sighed, leaning back. “Yeah, okay.” James thought on that for a minute before bursting out, “Wait, you agree I’ll be single forever?”
Remus glared up at James from his book.
“You’re his friend, Moony, what do you think I should do?” James pleaded, giving Remus puppy dog eyes.
His friend closed his book. “Regulus is quiet and isn’t fond of excess attention so I suggest you stop declaring your love in the Great Hall,” Remus told James with a smirk.
“So, I can still declare my love, I just have to do it quietly?” James asked, waggling his eyebrows at Remus.
Remus rolled his eyes and picked his book back up. “You do you, Prongs.”
