Columbine (Aquilegia vulgaris) ๐ŸŒธ

This lovely blue flower grows in forests, on slopes, and meadowsโ€ฆ
It can thrive in partial shade or full sunlight. In the shade, its colors usually appear softer, just like in this photo.

One of its old names is โ€œBonne-Femmeโ€ (Good Woman). In the Middle Ages, it was considered an aphrodisiacโ€ฆ but itโ€™s definitely not a good idea to consume it, since it contains hydrocyanic acid (cyanide) and is highly toxic!

Itโ€™s a wildflower, but many cultivars have been created for decorating our gardens.

Rhododendron arboreum, the tree rhododendron, also known as burans or gurans, is an evergreen shrub or small tree with a showy display of bright red flowers. It is found in Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Thailand. Rhododendron arboreum is the national flower of Nepal; in India it is the state tree of Uttarakhand and state flower of Himachal Pradesh and Nagaland.

This species only grows in the high lander area. I cannot grow it in Hong Kong although it is very beautiful for the bonsai and Penjing. I have seen a very beautiful Penjing of this species in the higher lander provinces of China.
