A garden flower is not as fragrant as a wild one. Grow a pot of wildflowers at home and look at them every day, and they are especially good to eat.

The countryside outdoors is a natural grand garden, where flowers of every hue bloom in competition. Thanks to the hard work of butterflies and bees, the flowers are fresher, more brilliant and more fragrant.

Which wildflowers can be planted at home? Let's take a look.

1. Morning glory

Morning glory is seen far too often in the wild; it can be found everywhere. Its vines twine and interlace, and it has a great many flower buds. Red, pink, purple and blue, they bloom in a riot of colour, extremely spectacular.

Morning glory has very strong adaptability. You can dig it up and take it home, plant it on the balcony, and let its soft vines cover the security grille, full of green and crowded with blossoms, very beautiful.

2. Hollyhock

Hollyhock is also called yizhanghong, and it is very common on both sides of roads in the countryside. With its tall and imposing stature, its flower buds can line up from bottom to top, blooming with passion and abandon, the blossoms gorgeous and outstretched, full of fervour.

Hollyhock is very easy to grow and belongs to the type that grows as long as there is soil. As long as your home has space, you can dig up a few plants from the wild and pair them with your home to beautify the environment. Not bad.

3. Asiatic dayflower

Asiatic dayflower grows in fields and at field edges, in ditches and on riverbanks, and its vitality is very tenacious. Its emerald green creeping stems divide and spread very quickly, and on the stems bloom little blue flowers, one after another, low-key yet earnest, very endearing.

When you dig up Asiatic dayflower and take it home, you can hang it on the balcony, and it has the feel of a spider plant. You do not need to tend it carefully; it will quietly fill the pot on its own.

4. Black nightshade

Black nightshade has many aliases and is called differently in different regions. Here we call it heidoudou, and it is very common in fields and at field edges and on both sides of main roads. On its emerald green stems and branches it strives to bear black berries, string after string, sweet-and-sour and delicious. That is also a taste that belongs uniquely to childhood!

You can move it home and plant it in a flowerpot, watching it produce white flowers and bear black fruit. It does not matter whether you eat them or not; what you see are beautiful memories.

5. Purslane

Purslane in the fields and by the roadside has emerald green leaves and branches, moist and thick, and its small yellow flowers bloom shyly, very endearing, with the look of jade leaves and golden branches, lush with greenery and thriving!

You can pull up the whole plant and take it home, or pinch off a branch and take it home for cuttings. Its adaptability is extremely strong: give it soil and it grows, give it light and it shines. Most importantly, it is especially good to eat, and it is also a very good Chinese medicinal herb.

There are still many, many beautiful wildflowers, such as: dandelion, shepherd's purse, foxtail grass, cockscomb, and so on. As long as you like them, you can move them home without spending a single cent, and your home can also bloom into a garden!
