Genus:Melaleuca
Species:M. citrina
Synonyms: Metrosideros citrina, Callistemon lanceolatus, Callistemon citrinus
Origin: Bottlebrushes are members of the genus Melaleuca and belong to the family Myrtaceae. They are closely related to paperbark melaleucas, which also have 'bottlebrush' shaped flower spikes. Most Bottlebrushes occur in the east and south-east of Australia. Two species occur in the south-west of Western Australia and four species in New Caledonia. Bottlebrushes can be found growing from Australia's tropical north to the temperate south. They often grow in damp or wet conditions such as along creek beds or in areas which are prone to floods.
This species is probably the best known bottlebrush and is widely cultivated. The bright red flower-spikes appear in summer and autumn. Crimson Bottlebrush grows well in wet conditions and usually reaches 4 m. Plants should be lightly pruned and fertilised after flowering. Neglected or mis-shapen plants respond to hard pruning.

Many other fruits are also wonderful in their season, but the pear at its finest can be so much more exceptional in terms of its luscious texture, richness of taste, and its fragrances reminiscent of rose water, musk, and vanilla.
Pears grow in the Alcinous' orchard, in The Odyssey:
"A LARGE ORCHARD of four acres, where trees hang
their greenery on high, the pear and the
pomegranate, the apple with its glossy burden, the
sweet fig and luxuriant olive ... Pear after
pear, apple after apple, cluster on cluster of grapes,
and fig upon fig, are always coming to perfection ..."
The Odyssey by Homer, written 800 BC
L’Acero del Canada ha foglie opposte caduche, con nervature profonde, da tri- a pentalobate e lunghe fino a 13 cm; i lobi, poco incisi, sono separati da angoli ottusi. Di colore verde scuro, d'autunno assumono sfumature di gradazioni brillanti dal giallo oro all'arancione, fino al cremisi e allo scarlatto; la muta più spettacolare avviene nella zona settentrionale dell'areale, dove c'è la giusta alternanza di giornate soleggiate e notti fredde.
Canada Maple, has opposite deciduous leaves, with deep veins, from three to five-lobed and up to 13 cm long; the lobes, slightly incised, are separated by obtuse angles. Dark green in colour, in autumn they take on shades of brilliant gradations from golden yellow to orange, up to crimson and scarlet; the most spectacular moult occurs in the northern part of the range, where there is the right alternation of sunny days and cold nights.
Les feuilles d’érable du Canada sont caduques, opposées, à nervures profondes, de trois à cinq lobes et mesurant jusqu'à 13 cm de long ; les lobes, légèrement incisés, sont séparés par des angles obtus. De couleur vert foncé, elles prennent en automne des nuances brillantes allant du jaune doré à l'orange, jusqu'au cramoisi et à l'écarlate ; la mue la plus spectaculaire se produit dans la partie nord de la chaîne, où il y a une bonne alternance de jours ensoleillés et de nuits froides.

Photographed the Tiger Lily in one of the Flower gardens on Prout's Island on Lake Sesekinika in Grenfell Township in Northeastern Ontario Canada
Lance-leaved tiger lily is native to China, but is widely cultivated in North America. It often escapes from cultivation and is quite common and widespread in New England in fields, roadsides and lawn edges. The large bulbs are edible, and the flowers are sometimes eaten in salads.
This species is distinctive for having alternate leaves with small bulbils forming in the upper leaf axils.

Red Bottlebrush Shrub flower photographed in the Vilar do Golf Resort located in Quinta do Lago in Almancil in the Algarve of Southern Portugal.
Callistemon species have commonly been referred to as bottlebrushes because of their cylindrical, brush like flowers resembling a traditional bottle brush. They are mostly found in the more temperate regions of Australia, especially along the east coast and typically favour moist conditions so when planted in gardens thrive on regular watering.[citation needed] However, two species are found in Tasmania and several others in the south-west of Western Australia. At least some species are drought-resistant and some are used in ornamental landscaping elsewhere in the world.

A Wax begonia, also known as a Perpetual begonia, Bedding begonia, Clubed begonia, or simply Begonia. This plant's scientific classification places it in the Kingdom Plantae, Phylum Tracheophyta, Class Magnoliopsida, Order Cucurbitales, Family Begoniaceae, and Genus Begonia.
Chives (Allium schoenoprasum)
Scientific classification
Kingdom: Plantae
Subkingdom: Tracheobionta
Division: Magnoliophyta
Class: Liliopsida
Subclass: Liliidae
Order: Asparagales
Family: Alliaceae
Genus: Allium
Species: A. schoenoprasum
Height: 30-50 cm tall
Chives (Allium schoenoprasum) are the smallest species of the onion family Alliaceae, native to Europe, Asia and North America. They are referred to only in the plural, because they grow in clumps rather than as individual plants. Allium schoenoprasum is also the only species of Allium native to both the New and the Old World.
Its species name derives from the Greek skhoinos (sedge) and prason (onion). Its English name, chive, derives from the French word cive, which was derived from cepa, the Latin word for onion.
Culinary uses for chives involve shredding its leaves (straws) for use as condiment for fish, potatoes and soups. Because of this, it is a common household herb, frequent in gardens as well as in grocery stores. It also has insect-repelling properties which can be used in gardens to control pests.
The medical properties of chives are similar to those of garlic, but weaker; the faint effects in comparison with garlic are probably the main reason for its limited use as a medicinal herb. Containing numerous organisulplide compounds such as allyl sulfides and alkyl sulfoxides, chives have a beneficial effect on the circulatory system, acting upon it by lowering the blood pressure. As chives are usually served in small amounts and never as the main dish, negative effects are rarely encountered, although digestive problems may occur following over-consumption.
Chives are also rich in vitamins A and C, and contain trace amounts of sulfur and iron.
• Tree peony, Moutan peony
• Peonía de árbol
• 모란 (Moran)
Scientific classification:
Kingdom: Plantae
Clade: Tracheophytes
Clade: Angiosperms
Clade: Eudicots
Order: Saxifragales
Family: Paeoniaceae
Genus: Paeonia
Species: Paeonia suffruticosa
The tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa, Korean: 모란, Moran) is a magnificent woody shrub celebrated for its lush, multi-petaled blossoms and elegant structure. Unlike the herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora, 작약, Jakyak), which dies back each winter, the tree peony grows on sturdy woody stems and produces even larger, more dramatic flowers. From April to May, it bursts into bloom with shades ranging from pure white to deep reddish-purple, filling gardens with color and subtle fragrance. By late summer, its fruit splits open to reveal small, round black seeds.
In South Korea, the tree peony is more than just a beautiful flower—it carries deep cultural symbolism. For centuries it has represented wealth, honor, prosperity, and refined beauty, appearing in traditional art, poetry, and palace decorations. A notable example is its frequent appearance in the folk paintings known as minwha (민화), where it is used as an auspicious ornamental motif. Though admired throughout the country, tree peonies remain a cherished sight in spring, when their short but spectacular blooming season draws admirers from near and far.
