Wild Chrysanthemums in Bloom

Wen/Yang Ying

The small wild chrysanthemum flower, belongs to perennial herbaceous plants, alias oil chrysanthemum, bitter barley, roadside yellow, mountain chrysanthemum, wild yellow chrysanthemum, September chrysanthemum. The leaves, flowers and the whole herb of chrysanthemum are used as medicine. It is bitter, pungent and cool in flavor, clearing heat and removing toxins, dispersing wind and heat, dispersing blood stasis, brightening the eyes and lowering blood pressure.

Small wild chrysanthemums are simple and unassuming in nature, mostly growing on mountain slopes and hills, or scattered in meadows, fields and roadsides, so they are inconspicuous and unattended. However, every year in September, the small chrysanthemum flowers, like the elves, will always be carefully prepared to present a feast of flowers to feed its growth of sunshine, earth and rain, and the people who love it.

Remember there is a song sung in this way: "summer gone, chrysanthemums bloomed ......" I also transplanted a pot of small wild chrysanthemums on the balcony. The small wild chrysanthemum is too naughty, it is not according to the song sung in the summer away on the flowering, but dilly-dallying to the mid-autumn moon day, still full of green leaves in the appearance of standing in the flower pot.

Seeing the footsteps of the season has gone to the late fall, the small wild chrysanthemums this is lazy in the branches, show their small buds. Seeing the small wild chrysanthemums on the branches of the small flower buds dotted like stars, I was very pleased, confidently waiting for the arrival of the blooming season. However, I waited until after the winter season, the small wild chrysanthemums which slipped out a cluster of yellow, golden chrysanthemums. Little wild chrysanthemums bloomed, which is, after all, a thing to rejoice and encouragement, and not in vain, I have long been on its careful maintenance and cultivation, hard work and expectation.

Small wild chrysanthemum flowers bloomed one after another, and its fresh and elegant fragrance, inhaling the refreshing, enjoying the starry night, fluffy, mesmerizing!

Look at the clusters of golden chrysanthemums scattered among the green leaves! Like a very fragrant painting, like a very soft dream, like a very cold winter into the window of a ray of sunshine, like a very filled with the fragrance of the yellow book of a book of poetry.

Pretty little wild chrysanthemums, golden, dense look, very pleasing to the eye. Looking at the balcony pot is bathing in the winter sun, enjoy the sunbathing small wild chrysanthemums, I just want to sincerely say to them, you blossomed charming! I won't blame you for not blooming when summer is gone, nor will I blame you for lazily showing off your respective buds in late fall, nor will I blame you for coming late to the party and filling your branches with flowers after winter.

In my opinion, as long as the little wild chrysanthemums are willing to open up, it's always chrysanthemum-scented time!
