Edelweiss (pronounced /ˈeɪdəlvaɪs/; Leontopodium alpinum), is one of the best-known European mountain flowers, belonging to the sunflower family (Asteraceae).

 

The name comes from German edel (meaning noble) and weiss (meaning white). The scientific name, Leontopodium, means "lion's paw" and is derived from the Greek words leon (lion) and podion (diminutive of pous, foot).

 

A Special dedication to ALL MY GERMAN SPEEKING FRIENDS:)
