Mesorat%20hashas for Kilayim 5:8

הַמְקַיֵּם קוֹצִים בַּכֶּרֶם, רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר, קִדֵּשׁ. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, לֹא קִדֵּשׁ אֶלָּא דָבָר שֶׁכָּמוֹהוּ מְקַיְּמִין. הָאִירוּס וְהַקִּסּוֹם וְשׁוֹשַׁנַּת הַמֶּלֶךְ וְכָל מִינֵי זְרָעִים, אֵינָן כִּלְאַיִם בַּכָּרֶם. הַקַּנְבּוֹס, רַבִּי טַרְפוֹן אוֹמֵר, אֵינוֹ כִלְאָיִם, וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, כִּלְאָיִם. וְהַקִּנְרָס, כִּלְאַיִם בַּכָּרֶם:

If one permits thorns [the species that camels eat] to remain in his vineyard, Rabbi Eliezer says, He has rendered them prohibited, the Sages say he has not rendered them prohibited, for only [the only things that renders them prohibited are] such species that one [generally] retains [thorns are only prohibited in a place where there are camels]. The <i> eirus</i> [lily with an aromatic root], the <i>kisos</i> [ivy like plant that climb up walls], the <i>shoshanat hamelekh</i> [king's lily] are not <i>kilayim</i> in a vineyard. All kinds of seeds are not <i>kilayim</i> in a vineyard [by Torah law]. [With regard to] hemp Rabbi Tarfon says, it is not <i>kilayim</i> and the Sages say it is <i>kilayim</i>. Artichokes are <i>kilayim</i> in a vineyard.
