If none of this can be done, you might as well insert a hundred lotus.

Today is the first day of dog days, but the weather is too hot to move (find a good reason for your laziness).

In the hot weather, the eyes and body and mind need to be cooled down. In order to give everyone a little trick to cool down, Paeonia lactiflora is also heartbroken. Not long ago, I introduced to you how to make ice cubes of flowers and plants, and today I thought of a kind of plant with cooling effect. Daiyu is Crimson pearl grass, and it is "cooling fairy grass". It's cool at a glance, it's amazing!

This kind of plant is a blue-purple system that peony likes very much, and it is also my favorite this summer, such as ice cream. It instantly soothes the dryness and heat in my heart, and as soon as my heart is calm, I feel less hot.

A cool one for you.

"on the other side of the mountain, on the other side of the sea, there is a group of Smurfs."

The flowers I would like to introduce to you today are the Smurfs in summer. There is a word lotus in its name, but it has nothing to do with water lilies and lotus flowers, nor does it live in water. Its origin is in warm South Africa, also known as African lily.

Yes, Paeonia lactiflora is talking about Baizi lotus.

When the weather is hot, the lotus blossoms.

Like a little wrench on a toddler's head.

You can't imagine, in this little tug

I can't believe you can hide so many flowers.

On an umbrella-shaped inflorescence.

There are 10-50 flowers.

Be caught in a heavy rain

The seemingly weak Baizi lotus is not afraid.

A body of water, but it looks even more moving.

Facing the scorching sun in July and August

The "trumpet" is completely open.

The anther will be yellow from the beginning.

It gradually turns black.

There is a dark vein in the blue petals

If Qin is in the ice water, it will be cold in an instant.

Baizi lotus has many colors.

In addition to the common blue and purple, there is also white.

The white Baizi lotus is more elegant.

The fragile look is loved by anyone who has seen it.

In fact, Baizi lotus is not as weak as it looks, it belongs to perennial root plant, compound flower is very good, not delicate at all.

Baizi lotus likes a warm, humid, sunny environment because its hometown is in the Cape of good Hope in South Africa. During the colonial period, Baizi lotus was brought to Europe, and since then, it has become one of the most common flowers in European gardens.

Walk by the side of the road

You can see Baizilian looking around with its flower head outstretched.

The low flower wall of Baizilian in the garden

It forms a blue-purple zone and winds its way into the distance.

In an English garden

Baizi lotus is the most romantic one.

Several nearby plants are dotted with blue and purple in the distance

Is the soul of this garden.

In addition to planting in the garden, Europeans also like to plant it on the coast and combine it with the sea and blue sky to form an ocean paradise.

Hundred-seed lotus is also loved by European artists. Monet's favorite in his life are water lily and hundred-seed lotus, which he once painted together.

Water lilies sleep in the pool

Baizi lotus swayed quietly on the shore

Outline a dreamy waterfront.

Europeans love Baizi lotus so much, not only because of its beauty, in their eyes, Baizi lotus is the flower of love. The English name of Baizi lotus is Agapanthus, and in Greek, agape means love, so it is also called African love flower.

There are many flowers that represent love, but there are not many low-key and unvulgar ones like Baizilian. It is also interesting to say that it will be regarded as the flower of love, which has nothing to do with the flower, but because it has many children.

Many children and many blessings, it sounds very "Chinese characteristics", perhaps happy love is to have a lot of children.

But Paeonia prefers to believe that her flowers are also waiting for love. The light color is neither vulgar nor beautiful, just like a young girl who meets for the first time, does not understand the secular troubles, eyebrows are full of expectations, standing in silence, waiting for the favor of love.

It is this fresh and abstinent blue that makes Baizilian appear more mysterious and elegant, and of course her beauty can not escape the hunter-like eyes of florists.

The graceful hundred-seed lotus

With a straight stem, the sense of line is very beautiful.

It is a very good flower material in Chinese flower arrangement.

Baizi lotus which is not fully open

Coupled with her first love face, she has a versatile DNA.

When paired with cold-conditioned flowers such as white-green

There is a refreshing feeling in the face.

When tied with dark colors such as pink and purple

It is the most elegant touch of blue in the bouquet.

Paeonia lactiflora likes these more linear flowers because it is very suitable for lazy people to arrange flowers. Do not worry about what vase to use, with what flowers, leaves.

Find a bottle at will

It looks good if you put two flowers in.

Or use a combined glassware.

Plug in a row, and you will have a cool feeling.

Insert it in a white porcelain bottle

I had a Japanese feeling at once.

Even those that are scattered to the point where there are only branches.

There is also a beauty of stillness.

The life span of Baizi lotus vase is about 7-10 days. If it is collected directly from the courtyard of the home, you should pay attention to inserting water immediately after picking, otherwise it will be easy to dry when exposed to the air and affect the pumping capacity.

In fact, peony fat intestines recommend potted friends to the south of the Yangtze River to plant hundred lotus, as long as avoid strong light in summer, give it enough sunshine in winter to feed. However, in the northern part of our country, overwintering is not easy and needs to be moved indoors.

Plant a pot of hundred lotus, let it bloom cool, dilute the steaming heat.

There is a hundred lotus in summer, it is no longer annoying hot. A touch of light blue and purple came, she was light, light, with a trace of dream, summer depression has been melted.

In summer, I want endless ice cream.

Want to blow the breeze in the mountain stream.

If none of this can be done,

Why not insert a hundred lotus

This is the most poetic way to cool summer.
