The vine shrub Of the Euphorbiaceae family, Iron Begonia, is originally a plant that grows in Africa, and although it is not very drained from the planting area, its hardy habit is still unique to Lingnan.
If it is cultivated in the cold north, it can only exist in the form of indoor potted plants, so the effort to be spent on the cultivation cannot be underestimated.
Moreover, the iron begonia in the cold can not guarantee that there are three seasons of flowering in a year, if the iron begonia is less or no flower, what can it be left!
Therefore, in general: iron begonia is often regarded as a southern plant, or it is easier to be accepted.
My encounter with Tie Haitang was on the afternoon of the eve of the Spring Festival, and the waxing moon day in Lingnan was mild with coolness.
But this did not hinder the brilliance of the iron begonia, only to see the flowers composed of large red petals, one next to the other, full of red and bright colors, and occasionally revealed green oval leaves.
The iron begonia plant is only fifty or sixty centimeters tall, but the spiked tiger on its branches is mighty and scrappy, posing a strong momentum to deal with the enemy at any time.
In the red warm flower, there are sharp cone-like hard thorns, and the power emitted by the short body seems to be suspected of being 'real people do not show their faces'[Ya Ya]
Therefore, it is also known as the nickname of "tiger thorn", which seems to be an incredible patchwork, but it is actually an excellent interpretation of true beauty.
Born in Africa, it is drought-tolerant, barren- and grows without much scruples, and whenever you look at it, the beauty of the iron begonia is beyond reproach.
But this is not an excuse for the piper's negligence. On the contrary, those hard-working flower workers have worked harder because of the warm red flowers of the iron begonias.
Those workers who work in the garden are the most able to understand the iron begonias, so the water is not more and no less, and the fertilizer is also applied in moderation.
In short, it is just right to serve, in order to make the personality of the iron begonia tough and soft to the fullest.
In the garden cultivation, the flower craftsmen can also take advantage of the unique conditions of the iron begonia to plant several types of creativity in a limited area, so that the iron begonia with stubbornness, gentle loyalty, courage and elegance in one of the dominant!
And because begonia is a member of the euphorbiaceae, it also carries harmful ingredients in the body.
Fortunately, it does not hurt it, it will not expose harmful juices and hurt people and animals, even if it is only a mild symptom, even if it is handled, it is no big problem.
Moreover, with the use of "is the drug three points of poison" to push back, iron begonia has medicinal value, its medicinal effect has a strong pertinence to treat trauma one by one.
The whole plant of iron begonia can be medicated, and external application is a good medicine for treating bruising, fractures and ulcers, draining pus, and invigorating blood.
The name is begonia, it is already famous in the world, coupled with the hardness of iron, it makes iron begonia become both a beautiful spiritual enjoyment, but also a practical value for treating diseases, so is this composite creature not a treasure?
