Standing in front of Mu Hibiscus, you will understand what a slightly drunk and pale face is. Like a drunken concubine, infinite style.
Wang Anshi wrote poems on it, "just like a beauty getting drunk for the first time", so Mu Hibiscus has a charming alias - Drunken Hibiscus.
Wood hibiscus is a big beauty of the Malvaceae family.
The flowers are full of grandeur, and a solitary branch ends in the leaf axils.
The corolla is white or pale red at first, dark red later, and changes three times a day. There are even times when a flower is in a gradual change, hence the name "three change flowers".
Strictly speaking, wood hibiscus is single-petaled. The double-petaled is called double-petaled hibiscus, which is different from the original variant in that the flower system is double-petaled.
Su Dongpo once remembered: "Qianlin swept a yellow, only Hibiscus was alone." ”
The hibiscus here is not the lotus flower in the "water hibiscus", but actually refers to the wood hibiscus.
Because the wood hibiscus blooms in late autumn, it is unique and fragrant, and can be compared with chrysanthemums, also known as "frost-resistant flowers" or "autumn peonies".
Like hibiscus, the flower has a life cycle of only one day from blooming to falling: the hibiscus flower is new every day.
The peduncle is knotted near the apex, which is the small joint in the picture above, so that when the petals fall on the branch, it will be calm and refreshing.
The branches of the five columella are hairy, and the leaflets, petioles, peduncles and calyx are densely covered with fine hairs mixed with stellate and straight hairs.
Leaves ovate-heart-shaped, often 5-7-lobed, lobes triangular, apex acuminate, obtuse and serrate, sparsely covered with stellate hairs and fine points above, densely covered with stellate fine hairs below.
Leaf back
Wood hibiscus has those aliases, but it is called wood hibiscus in the "Compendium of Materia Medica".
It also records its medicinal effects: "Hibiscus flowers and leaves, flat but not cold or hot, slightly pungent and slippery and sticky, its treatment of carbuncle swelling, has a miraculous effect." ”
I met the hibiscus in the medicinal plant garden in Guiyang in late autumn last year. After checking the information, it was found that its flowers, leaves, and roots can be used as medicine, which has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and draining pus, and cooling blood and stopping bleeding.
In addition to medicinal use, hibiscus can be used as a food therapy: hibiscus flower porridge, hibiscus flower omelette, hibiscus tofu, hibiscus flower chicken slices ......
But the charm of wood hibiscus is far more than that, to be continued.
