Explanation:
The common oil-seed rape or cole seed, Brassica Napus, is one of the best of the free greens. The name, rape, is from the same origin as the Rapa in Brassica Rapa - the wild turnip. The origin of the plant is long since lost in history, but David Streeter, in the book 'The Wild Flowers of the British Isles', suggests it arose as a hybridisation between Brassica Oleracea (the wild cabbage) and Brassica Rapa.
