HERB - name this herb?

[Kathleen H. Keeler]

Master Demetrios of An Tir wrote: " I have been translating a 12th Century
Byzantine  Poem out of German.  I have been
getting some help from a student in Germany, but neither she nor I can figure
out what a word is in English.  In German it is GARDENMELDE and it is in the
middle of a list of herbs and spices which every (upperclass) home should
have on hand.  We have been to all the dictionaries we can find and she has
even consulted a student in Botany, but zero luck.  I thought that you might
have some professional contacts who might be able to help out.  I'd
appreciate anything you can do.  Thanks. "

I'll ask my "professional contacts," oh herbalist subscribers, but I think
this is one for you-all
