"Star of the Knight" Flowers of the earth without evil

Source: Family album

Good morning to all the readers of golos.io. Today I want to accompany you with another presentation of flowers of the earth without evil. My land is very beautiful, it has infinities of beautiful flowers, we have varieties that bloom in winter, but those that bloom in spring predominate, when my beautiful city becomes florid. The riverside trees such as the jacaranda, chivato, ceibo and lapacho open their flowers enrapturing the emblematic waterfront and Camba Cua park.

The scientific name of the selected flower of the day is "Hippeastrum puniceum" belonging to the "bulbous species" family of the "amaryllidaceae" native to "tropical South America". Its "bulbs" vary between four and five centimeters, the leaves grow between thirty and sixty centimeters, a central stem from which two to four flowers are detached, presenting orange colors, oranges pulling red, including white roses. It owes its scientific name to "Andreas Voss" a "meteorologist" and "botanist" from Germany

"Hippeastrum" is a Greek word, whose meaning is "gentleman's star" was named in the year 1821 and owes its name to the Reverend "William Herbert" who used this word to identify the first plant of the "genre Hippeastrum reginae". On the other hand in the year 1795 the "botanist" native of Sweden "Carlos Linnaeus" classified it as "Amaryllis equestris" because of the great resemblance to the African ones "Amaryllis"

As you could read The "gentleman's star" is not a simple flower, it is a plant full of history and mysticism worthy of being disseminated.

I hope that my writing has been to your liking.

I wish you all happiness and prosperity
