In March, wildflowers bloom everywhere Have you all seen many along the roadside? Today, Huahua will take everyone to admire ten common little wildflowers~

Veronica


The name Veronica is said to come from its shape resembling the sole of a shoe woven by an old woman (popo), with small and lovely blue-and-white flowers. As a child, Huahua loved to pick them and tuck them into books, like little butterflies.

Androsace


Androsace is quite different from its "distant relative" the plum blossom, with soft and fresh white petals growing in clusters, like little stars dotting the earth.

Viola


Viola, also known as wild violet, was picked by Grandma to make porridge when Huahua was little. Later, Huahua discovered in foreign fables that it is also the beautiful incarnation of the river god Yi'er.

Mazus


Mazus, just like its name suggests, can be seen whenever you go to moist grassy areas, with little blue-purple trumpets full of vitality.

Trigonootis


Trigonootis is also called ground pepper, and is actually a "relative" of the common shepherd's purse. Because its stems are relatively long, Huahua often used it to make beautiful little flower wreaths in childhood.

Chickweed


Chickweed mostly grows in moist and stable areas like fields or beside streams. Its small white petals are as delicate and lovely as a sparrow's tongue, which might be the origin of its name.

Youngia


Youngia is not actually a vegetable. When broken, it exudes a white sap. When Huahua was little, she accidentally got it on her clothes and was scolded by her mom.

Snake strawberry


Snake strawberry produces berries that look very tempting, but never let children eat its fruit carelessly. When Huahua accidentally ate its fruit back then, she ended up with a stomachache.

Clover


Clover is similar to wood sorrel. Although its white flowers are simple, they have a very sweet scent. Large patches of clover are absolutely great at attracting butterflies and bees.

Cat's claw


Cat's claw is named because its roots look like a kitten's claws. As a child, Huahua would help Grandma dig cat's claw, because it is quite a famous medicinal herb.
