Where this word comes from

From Middle High German hederich, from Old High German hederih (“wild radish, wild mustard”, 11th c.). Cognate with Dutch he(de)rik (“wild mustard”). Probably from Latin hederāceus (“ivy-like”), though this would imply that it originally referred to some other kind of plant. According to the Deutsches Wörterbuch, it may mean “ground-ivy” in parts of northern Germany. As indicated, the Old High German attestations already have the modern sense.
