What are some flowers with unappealing names
Let's talk about some flowers with unappealing names and introduce three types of green plants with unattractive names but beautiful blooming flowers. Let's take a look together!
Many people who grow flowers choose to do so after hearing the names of the flowers, thinking that if the name is beautiful, the flower must also be beautiful. However, there are many flowers around us with unappealing names, which could be considered "down-to-earth," but their blooms are extremely beautiful. Do you know any of them?
Ranunculus
The leaves of ranunculus are like celery, hence it's also called celery flower. Its name sounds unappealing, but if you've seen its true appearance, you would be deeply attracted to it. People say it is not a peony but comparable to one. If potted, it can be placed on a windowsill or balcony, offering a high elegance, warmth, beauty, and a picturesque scenery.
Ranunculus prefers a cool and humid environment with plenty of sunshine and is quite cold-resistant. It can also adapt to semi-shaded conditions and is afraid of strong sunlight and high temperatures. With the arrival of high temperatures, it's important to shield it from strong sunlight. As the blooming season comes to an end, the leaves will gradually age, and watering should be reduced.
Dahlia
Dahlia is also known as sweet potato flower because its tubers resemble sweet potatoes. Generally, it only needs to be planted once, and it will sprout and grow every year. It starts blooming in May and June and continues throughout the summer, looking extremely beautiful and eye-catching, not at all like its common name suggests.
Dahlia comes in a variety of colors, such as yellow, pink, red, orange, purple, and bicolors. The flowers are as large as a bowl, elegant and noble, and can also be used for flower arrangements, placed in front of a mirror or on a dining table to make the environment lively and cheerful, highlighting the atmosphere.
Dahlia loves sunshine, is drought-resistant, and has a strong vitality, making it very unlikely to die. Even in hot and dry weather, it is not greatly affected, making it easy to care for. After the flowers fade, it's necessary to剪 off the dead flowers promptly to reduce nutrient consumption and promote a second bloom.
Lupine
Most people haven't heard of lupine, but if I mention that it's also called the "lucky bean flower," you'll probably know it, right? A classic children's song from our childhood is still echoing in our minds.
