Grandma cut her neighbor's chives to make dumplings, and her grandson got poisoned after eating them

Flowers & Gardening 0 views
Huahua recently saw the news: an old lady secretly went to her neighbor's house to cut chives, made dumplings and gave them to her little grandson to eat. As a result, after eating them, the little grandson was poisoned and went to the hospital! Only then did they realize that what the old lady had cut was not chives at all, but daffodils that had not yet bloomed!

So today, Huahua is here to summarize for everyone those flowers that look like chives or scallions before they bloom. Everyone, please do not mistake them!

Rain lily - looks like scallions and also like chives, blooms as soon as it rains!

The first one Huahua will talk about is the recently very popular rain lily! Because it blooms as soon as it rains, it is called rain lily, and rain lilies are divided into 2 varieties: chive lily and autumn zephyr lily.

The chive lily, which looks like chives, has relatively flat leaves and easily falls over.

Dig it up and see, do the leaves look even more like chives?

The autumn zephyr lily, which looks like scallion leaves, has round leaves and grows upright without bending easily.

The autumn zephyr lily dug up looks exactly the same as a scallion. The distinction between the green leaves and the white stalk is especially clear!

Although it looks like chives and scallions, once it blooms, it bursts into clusters and is especially beautiful!

Allium giganteum - a colored flowering scallion

Huahua once passed by a residential community and saw quite a few old scallions in the greenery belt, but why did these scallions look different in color from the ones we grow at home? Oh, it turned out these were the inedible Allium giganteum!

Ordinary scallions look like this. If you generally forget to pick them, they will bloom after they get old!

Allium giganteum blooms like this. Isn't it much prettier than the scallions we grow at home?

Daffodil - looks like garlic sprouts when not blooming!

As for that auntie who mistook daffodils for chives, Huahua simply finds it unbelievable. Clearly, before daffodils bloom, they look no different from garlic! They are far from chives!

Daffodils that have not bloomed are completely just garlic leaves!

However, after blooming, the appearance of daffodils immediately rises by several levels!

Crinum lily - looks like corn leaves when not blooming!

The first time Huahua saw a crinum lily, I thought a dwarf version of corn had been cultivated, especially before it bloomed. These broad, large leaves are simply very similar to corn leaves!

But once it blooms, it has nothing to do with corn at all!
