Notes: Label source: The inner bark sold under the name of Nyello Bast is used to strain milk free from hairs. The name has probably been taken from the Italian wor agnello (lamb in Italian), from the resemblance of the pappus to lambs wool. It is pronounced, in two syllables - like yellow with an n before it.
