Bauhinia, flower color purple-red, shaped like a butterfly, the scenery is peculiar, gorgeous and lovely, when the leaves are not yet grown, the flowers on the branches are already in full bloom, so it is also known as "full of red". Bauhinia is native to China, all over the country are cultivated, belongs to the legume family, is one of the main ornamental flowers in the spring, suitable for planting in the courtyard, parks, lawn edges and slopes, adaptable, like sunshine, heat-resistant. Bauhinia flowers, bark and fruit can be used as medicine. Edible efficacy: It has the effect of clearing heat and cooling blood, dispelling wind and detoxification, promoting blood circulation and menstruation, and subduing swelling and relieving pain. It can be used to treat rheumatism and bone pain, bruises, wind-cold and dampness paralysis, amenorrhea, snake and insect bites, and blood and Qi disharmony. Bauhinia is also known as red-flowered Bauhinia, Bauhinia, red-flowered sheep's foot armor, for the family of evergreen medium trees, the leaf blade has a rounded, broadly ovate or kidney-shaped, but the top of the split into two halves, like sheep's hooves, so it has this name. Flowering period between winter and spring, flowers as large as a palm, slightly fragrant, five petals evenly arranged in whorls, red or pink, very beautiful. Bauhinia is evergreen and luxuriant all year round, quite resistant to soot, especially suitable for street trees; the bark contains tannins, which can be used as tannin and dyes; the roots, bark and flowers can also be used as medicine. Sheep's foot armor tree flowers best known as wattle September 30, China Hong Kong Architectural Services Department has begun packaging East Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront, to the next winter there will be more than 1,000 Palace powder sheep's foot armor tree, East Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront in the future between January and three will be created in Japan to enjoy cherry blossoms like attractive natural beauty. Don't overlook this news, it could be a smart move by the current Hong Kong SAR ***, which is a good thing, or it could be the biggest achievement of Chief Executive Tung's term of office when he retires and tells his grandchildren to enjoy the blossoms with him. Palace Pink Bauhinia tree flower is not the city flower of Hong Kong, China - Bauhinia, the correct information is that they all belong to the genus Bauhinia (Bauhinia) plants. Sheep's foot armor plant species, all varieties of leaves of the leaf end are split into two, the leaf veins are born at the bottom of the leaf, the leaf is broad heart-shaped or rounded, like a sheep's hoof. In Hong Kong, China, the most common species of sheep's foot (Bauhinia purpurea), red-flowered sheep's foot (Bauhinia purpurea), pink-flowered sheep's foot (Bauhinia variegata) and white-flowered sheep's foot (Bauhinia variegata var candida) are Bauhinia purpurea, Bauhinia variegata and Bauhinia variegata. It does take a bit of effort to differentiate between these four species, and the best way to do so is to look at their flowers. Bauhinia variegata is the most colorful, with five petals of deep purplish-red, five stamens, and flowers from November to March; Bauhinia variegata has five light pink petals, the apex of the petals are more wrinkled, and there are three to four stamens, and flowers from September to November; Bauhinia variegata has five pink petals, one of which has crimson stripes, and flowers from March to May; and Bauhinia variegata has five white petals, one of which has yellowish-green stripes, and one of which has yellowish-green stripes, and flowers from March to May. The white-flowering goat's-foot-nail has five white petals, one of which has yellow-green stripes, and five stamens, and flowers from March to May. There is also an episode about the flowers of the Bauhinia tree, that is, what Hong Kong, China calls Bauhinia (the specimen of Bauhinia found by the priest that year is now kept in the Herbarium of Hong Kong, China), is called the red-flowered Bauhinia in Mainland China, while the red-flowered Bauhinia that we call Bauhinia is called the sheep's foot in the Mainland. In Taiwan, Bauhinia is called Bauhinia splendens, and what is called Bauhinia in Taiwan is the same as the red-flowered sheep's foot-hold in Hong Kong, China. The Chinese names of Bauhinia in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan are different, so we can't rely on the Chinese name of the plant alone to confirm the plant's species. To confirm, it is best to look at its Latin scientific name, Bauhinia blakeana is the Latin scientific name of Bauhinia. See some headaches, Hong Kong, China is a helpless foreign, Taiwan called vulgar Yan, the mainland called the hardy sheepsfoot armor. In addition there are relatives of the red flower sheep's foot armor, palace pink sheep's foot armor and white flower sheep's foot armor. In Hong Kong, China, the flowering period is March and as trees, bloom very brilliant should be most of the palace pink and white-flowered sheep's foot armor, of course, there are also Bauhinia. Without checking, I do not know, the Chinese name of Bauhinia, in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan is so confusing, but also reminiscent of democracy in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, there are different interpretations of the three places is also very apt, really can be called the flower of China's democracy, but this is to make everyone laugh at the name, not to be used. Proposed the use of "thorn flower" to generalize the four sheepsfoot nail plant flowers, as cherry blossom is all different varieties of the name of the cherry blossom, so only thorn flowers in the Bauhinia because of its discovery of the story was selected as the city flower of Hong Kong, China, some of the name does not detract from the meaning of the meaning of the name. Bauhinia is a spring flower, widely planted, when in bloom and red and white, red is hope, white is sadness, the full bloom of the sky. Imagine the future of Hong Kong, China, residents of the family happily in the East Tsim Sha Tsui by the sea to enjoy the flowers, flowers under the living a good life. This is really the most not fake, big, empty, the use of governing power to give the people of Hong Kong, China's greatest benevolent policy it!
