Have you ever picked a lily in the countryside and wanted to make jelly but couldn't?Today I'm going to tell you that the salice that makes jelly is actually the jelly fruit.
Its leaves come in two shapes, and its fruits come in three, two of which cannot be used to make jelly.
This sharing will help you solve the doubts you may encounter when making jelly, which is a perennial climbing vine, also known as three banyans. When growing, its leaves are small, and its adventitious roots on the golden sense are particularly well developed and can climb rocks or large trees.
By the time it grows, blossoms and bears fruit, its leaves will become large and its branches will begin to stand up.
Its flowers are very similar to figs, and they are also wrapped in a receptacle, called a leading tidbit. It is also dioecious, and its velvet fruit is divided into three types, and distinguishing which fruit is the key to making jelly.
The first is the female flower, which is very plump and rich in pectin, and the fruit on the receptacle can be dug up to make jelly. The second type is the fruit of the male plant, called cryptocarp.
Cryptoflora is divided into two cases, one is a neutral flower with milky white male flowers at the bottom and a female flower with a degenerate female flower on the top, also called print. The other is caused by the absence of degradation inside, and when it is opened, it is completely empty shell.
The history of eating the lily is very long, and Qu Yuan has written many times about Bili, because its banyan fruit is like a lotus pod, so it is also called Mulian. It often grows on stone walls and big trees, and is also called Bilian
And its name, Xue Li, has been explained as a transliteration of French. I think it may come from the homonym of Bilian, what is it called in your hometown?
