💧Poem about the Enreisou: “Deep in the quiet forest”
by Aqua
Deep in the quiet forest,
like the Enreisou blooming in silence,
the friend in your heart
will always be by your side,
even without words.
Enreisou
Wake robin or Enreisou in Japan (scientific name: Trillium smallii) is a perennial of the family Melanthiaceae from Japan to Sakhara origin.
It is a slow growing plant and it will take a long time to flowering.
The characteristic of this plant is that it has a rounded rhombus with a large three telescopic leaves directly from the tip of the stem. From spring to early summer, a short floral pattern grows from the base of the flower stem, and red purple sepals appearing in flowers and six stamens, one flamenco with three tears bloom laterally.
No flower petals and calendar like petals are attached. Spherical fruits of green or black purple are formed after flowers. The rhizome contains the toxic ingredient saponin, but in China it has long been known as a gastrointestinal medicine called Older Grass Root of Chinese medicine.
Those whose calyx color is green are called Toshino Enoshi ((scientific name:Trillium smallii f. album).
