愛花的葉公

(2021-05-26 16:38:51) 下一個
前日路過,被一束束花兒吸引,每一束又有好些朵小花,每朵像個小燈籠,煞是好看。


昨日路過,有幾個小燈籠打開了耶。本以為前日的模樣就是這花兒該有的樣子,原來那些不過還是花苞苞。幸好走路走神,不然錯過精彩。


 


 


 


 


 


俺用狗狗找,找出來的是瑞香,怎麽看也對不上號。

名不正則言不順,怎麽著也得把這漂亮花兒的名字叫順溜了。

不懂就問,發朋友圈求教。

馬上就有一個朋友響應,告知英文名:Mountain Laurel, 有了這個做指導,狗狗馬上找來,一模一樣的呀。再請狗狗好狗做到底,幫忙找出中文名:山月桂。

這時候,另一個朋友的答案也來了:山月桂,康州州花。

哇塞,俺天天忙不迭貼花兒,居然不曉得州花,敢情是個花葉公呐

抄一段,瞧瞧為嘛山月桂摘得康州桂冠:

Designated as the State Flower by the General Assembly in 1907, the Mountain Laurel is perhaps the most beautiful of native American shrubs. Its fragrance and the massed richness of its white and pink blossoms so vividly contrast with the darker colors of the forests and the fields that they have continually attracted the attention of travelers since the earliest days of our colonization. First mentioned in John Smith's "General History," in 1624 specimens were sent to Linnaeus, the famous botanist, by the Swedish explorer Peter Kalm in 1750. 

Linnaeus gave it the name of Kalmia latifolia, honoring the name his correspondent and at the same time describing the "wide-leafed" characteristic of the plant. In addition to being called the "Mountain Laurel," the plant has also been spoken of as "Calico Bush" and "Spoonwood."
