Wisteria is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae (Leguminosae), that includes ten species of woody climbing vines that are native to China, Korea, Japan, and the Eastern United States. Some species are popular ornamental plants. Wisterias climb by twining their stems around any available support.The flowers are produced in pendulous racemes 10 to 80 cm long, similar to those of the genus Laburnum, but are purple, violet, pink or white. There is no yellow on the leaves. Flowering is in spring (just before or as the leaves open) in some Asian species, and in mid to late summer in the American species and W. japonica. The flowers of some species are fragrant. Wisteria, especially Wisteria sinensis, is very hardy and fast-growing. It can grow in fairly poor-quality soils, but prefers fertile, moist, well-drained soil. It thrives in full sun. 5492

Last weekend I discovered on a hike not far from my place of residence this lupine field, surrounded by woods and tall shrubs. Later in the afternoon I drove back to take some pictures.

Robinia pseudoacacia, commonly known in its native territory as black locust, is a medium-sized hardwood deciduous tree, belonging to the tribe Robinieae. It is endemic to a few small areas of the United States, but it has been widely planted and naturalized elsewhere in temperate North America, Europe, Southern Africa and Asia and is considered an invasive species in some areas. Another common name is false acacia, a literal translation of the specific name (pseudo meaning fake or false and acacia referring to the genus of plants with the same name).

Целую ночь соловей нам насвистывал,
Город молчал, и молчали дома.
Белой акации гроздья душистые
Ночь напролет нас сводили с ума.
Сад весь умыт был весенними ливнями,
В темных оврагах стояла вода.
Боже, какими мы были наивными,
Как же мы молоды были тогда.
Годы промчались, седыми нас делая.
Где чистота этих веток живых?
Только зима да метель эта белая
Напоминают сегодня о них.
В час, когда ветер бушует неистово,
С новою силою чувствую я:
Белой акации гроздья душистые
Невозвратимы, как юность моя!

The flowers of wisteria have drooping racemes that vary in length from species to species. They come in a variety of colors, including white, lilac, purple, and pink. The flowers are fragrant. Flowering is in spring (just before or as the leaves open) in some Asian species, and in mid to late summer in the American species.

Bodnant Garden Coordinates...: 53.2342°N 3.8006°W
Bodnant Garden Founded in 1874 and developed by five generations of one family, it was given to the National Trust in 1949. The garden spans 80 acres of hillside and includes formal Italianate terraces, informal shrub borders stocked with plants from around the world, The Dell, a gorge garden, areas of woodland garden with a number of notable trees and a waterfall. Since 2012, new areas have opened including the Winter garden, Old Park Meadow, Yew Dell and The Far End, a riverside garden. Furnace Wood and Meadow opened in 2017. There are plans to open more new areas, including Heather Hill and Cae Poeth Meadow.
Bodnant Garden has an illustrious connection with 19th and early 20th century explorers, who brought back plants for which the garden is now world-famous, including four National Collections, of Rhododendron forrestii, Magnolia,Eucryphia and Embothrium species. Today the garden also has twenty two Champion Trees, noted for their age, height and horticultural merit.

Lupine (Lupinus) is een geslacht van bloeiende planten uit de vlinderbloemenfamilie (Fabaceae) Het geslacht telt zo'n 200 soorten en kent vele hybriden en cultivars
Lupinen zijn inheems in Amerika, rond de Middellandse Zee en in Oost-Afrika. In Noordwest-Europa komt alleen de vaste lupine (Lupinus polyphyllus) in het wild voor. Deze soort is in de 19e eeuw uit Noord-Amerika ingevoerd.
De meeste lupines zijn paars, wit en roze, maar geel is geen uitzondering. Afhankelijk van de soort kunnen ze een hoogte bereiken van 50 cm tot 2 meter.

Vicia cracca (Fabaceae - Fabacées)
Common names: Cow Vetch, Bird or Boreal Vetch, Blue Vetch,
Noms communs: La Vesce craque, vesce multiflore, petits-oiseau, Veccia commune
Wisteria
is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae (Leguminosae), that includes ten species of woody climbing bines that are native to China, Korea, and Japan and as an introduced species to the Eastern United States. Some species are popular ornamental plants. An aquatic flowering plant with the common name wisteria or 'water wisteria' is in fact Hygrophila difformis, in the family Acanthaceae.
Wisterias climb by twining their stems around any available support. W. floribunda (Japanese wisteria) twines clockwise when viewed from above, while W. sinensis twines counterclockwise. This is an aid in identifying the two most common species of wisteria.
They can climb as high as 20 m (66 ft) above the ground and spread out 10 m (33 ft) laterally. The world's largest known wisteria is in Sierra Madre, California, measuring more than 1 acre (0.40 ha) in size and weighing 250 tons. Planted in 1894, it is of the 'Chinese lavender' variety.
The leaves are alternate, 15 to 35 cm long, pinnate, with 9 to 19 leaflets. The flowers are produced in pendulous racemes 10 to 80 cm long, similar to those of the genus Laburnum, but are purple, violet, pink or white. There is no yellow on the leaves. Flowering is in spring (just before or as the leaves open) in some Asian species, and in mid to late summer in the American species and W. japonica. The flowers of some species are fragrant, most notably W. sinensis. Wisteria species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including brown-tail.
The seeds are produced in pods similar to those of Laburnum, and, like the seeds of that genus, are poisonous. All parts of the plant contain a saponin called wisterin, which is toxic if ingested, and may cause dizziness, confusion, speech problems, nausea, vomiting, stomach pains, diarrhea and collapse.
There is debate over whether the concentration outside of the seeds is sufficient to cause poisoning. Wisteria seeds have caused poisoning in children and pets of many countries, producing mild to severe gastroenteritis and other effects.

De witte klaver (Trifolium repens) is een vaste plant uit de vlinderbloemenfamilie (Leguminosae), die zijn naam te danken heeft aan de overwegend witte kleur van de bloeiwijzen. Het is een bekende soort die voorkomt in graslanden, op gazons en in wegbermen. De soortaanduiding repens is Latijn voor "kruipend", een verwijzing naar de kruipende stengels. Net als bij andere klaversoorten bestaat het blad uit drie deelblaadjes. Soms komen er planten voor met vier deelblaadjes, het (klavertjevier), dat geluk zou brengen door het te plukken of aan te raken.
Eetbaar: ja
Witte Klaver is rijk aan o.a. eiwitten en wordt al eeuwenlang gebruikt als fris-zuur smakende toevoeging in en bij salades. De bloemhoofdjes staan op lange steeltjes. De bloemkroon is wit en kan roze aanlopen. De bloemetjes smaken fris-zoet en kunnen 'gesloopt' als strooibloemetjes gebruikt worden bij vele gerechten.

Isotropis is a genus of plants in the pea family. The whole genus is endemic to Australia. Isotropis cuneifolia (Granny Bonnets) only occurs in Southwest Australia. I was captivated by the dark red venation on the back of the flowers. From the front they look similar to the many other flowers in the pea family (Fabaceae). Western Australia is a centre of diversity for pea flowers with about 1000 species recognised. Early mornings were my favourite time to walk around when the plants were still covered in dew and the sun did not yet produce harsh contrasts.
Belonging to the Fabaceae or Leguminosae family, Caesalpiniaceae subfamily, Cercis genus, Cercis siliquastrum is a small deciduous tree that can reach a height of 5 to 7 m. Its leaves are cordate, 6 to 10 cm long and dark green in colour.
The intense pink flowers are approximately 1.5 cm long, with a short chalice, grouped into dense fascicles. They bloom at the end of the winter, before the appearance of the leaves, on one-year branches or on the trunk. The flowers are pollinated by bees and other insects. The fruits, flat pods about 7 to 10 cm long, are grayish-brown in colour, occurring during the month of September.
It is very often used for ornamental purposes in Portugal, in gardens and streets, due to its abundant flowering and rusticity. Google
