gorse
gorse: [OE] Gorse appears to mean etymologically ‘prickly bush’. It has been traced back to an Indo-European source *ghrzddenoting ‘roughness’ or ‘prickliness’, which also produced German gerste ‘barley’. Of the plant’s other names, furze [OE] is of unknown origin, while whin [11] was probably borrowed from a Scandinavian language.

Old English gors "gorse, furze," from Proto-Germanic *gorst- (cognates: Old Saxon, Old High German gersta, Middle Dutch gherste, Dutch gerst, German gerste "barley"), from PIE *ghers- "to bristle" (source also of Latin hordeum "barley;" see horror).
