Just because he didn't know the name for it doesn't mean he couldn't use the general idea. However, I think he would have preferred that Glaurung's origin remain unknown. It just adds to the mystery of his work.
Note: Plants are still life, a dragon is just on a larger scale (no pun intended); okay, an extremely larger scale. Yeah, I got nothin'.
