Walking on the road, you may never take a serious look at it, but it is just like this in the situation that we are blind, growing tenaciously, blossoming, bearing fruit, dotting our lives, even in the cold winter is green. It's just that – grass along the steps.

Grass along the steps

Just by looking at the name, it seems to be random, but it occupies a place in Chinese horticulture, decorating all kinds of roads, flower beds, and trails.

Flower beds, common grasses along the roadside

One day, if you suddenly stop and look at it patiently and carefully, you will find that its flowers the size of rice grains can bloom like peonies!

Flowers along the steps of the grass

It is often silly to distinguish between the grass and the wheat, plus they are both perennial herbs of the genus Lily family, so many people think that they are the same plant, but this is not true.

Mai Dong

Although their roots and leaves are different, the roots are not easy to see underground, and the leaves are not easy to compare, so let's look at the flowers.

Mai Dong

The flower pillars along the steps are slender, cylindrical, not broad at the base, the flower discs are more or less unfolded when the flowers are in full bloom, and the flower stems are usually slightly shorter than the leaves or nearly equal length. The flower column is usually stubby, conical, broad at the base, the flower cover is almost undrawn, and the flower stem is usually much shorter than the leaves. Of course, you'd better use a magnifying glass to watch, or you still don't understand it like me!

The flowers along the steps of the grass, the flowers are spread out relatively large

The flowers of Mai Dong, the flowers are unfolded smaller. This is still relatively large, and many are almost not unfolded.

Note that the flower color is not the focus, along the steps of the grass flowers also have a little purple when they first bloom, and after the wheat winter flowers bloom for a long time, the color will become lighter and a little white.

Interestingly, the flowers along the steps are small, but there are always some smaller things that harm it, and if you look closely at the flower bud in the middle of the white flower in the picture, you will find a small black spot, which is a small bug that sucks the juice of its flower bud.

If you look closely, you will find two in the middle of the upper row, the first one on the left side of the lower row, and the small bugs in the middle of the flower buds
