Kunezitshalo ezimangalisayo ngempela, ezingasishiya singakwazi ukukhuluma nganoma yisiphi isikhathi sonyaka. Enye yalezo yi- Ummbila florida, uhlobo lwesihlahla esikhiqiza izimbali eziningi, eziningi kangangokuthi kubonakala sengathi sifuna ukufihla amaqabunga aso ngemva kwamahlamvu aso.
Okuthakazelisa kunazo zonke akulona inani layo lokuhlobisa, kodwa futhi ukuthi liphikisana kangakanani nokuthi kulula kangakanani ukulondoloza, ngisho nasebhodweni.
Uyini umsuka wazo nezici zawo?
Kuyisihlahla esihle kakhulu esinamagatsha (kwesinye isikhathi isihlahlana) esidabuka empumalanga yeNyakatho Melika, ukusuka eMaine kuya eFlorida e-United States, nasempumalanga yeMexico. Yaziwa ngokuthi i-flowery dogwood noma i-flowery leech. UCarlos Linnaeus wachazwa futhi wanyatheliswa ku-Species Plantarum ngonyaka we-1753.
Uma sikhuluma ngezici zayo, ikhula ngesivinini esihle kuze kube finyelela ubude obuphakathi kwamamitha angu-5 no-10. Umqhele wayo uvame ukuba banzi, mayelana namamitha angu-3-6, nogqinsi lwesiqu olufika ku-30cm. Amaqabunga awo akhula ngendlela ephambene, futhi alula, 6 kuya ku-13cm ubude afika ku-6cm ububanzi. Ngokuvamile lezi ziluhlaza, kodwa ekwindla ziphenduka zibebomvu ngaphambi kokuwa.
Izimbaliabanobulili obubili futhi ihlumela entwasahlobo (cishe inyanga ka-April enyakatho nenkabazwe) ahlanganiswe ngama-umbel aminyene kakhulu, anezimbali ezingaba ngu-20 ezakhiwe ama-bracts amane amhlophe (amaqabunga ashintshiwe, avame ukubizwa ngephutha ngamacembe).
Isithelo siyiqoqo elingama-drupe ayishumi, ubude obuyi-10-15mm. Zivuthwa ngasekupheleni kwehlobo, zithola umbala obomvu. Ziyadliwa yizinyoni eziningi.
Ikuphi ukunakekelwa okudingayo ukuze uphile?
Ukuze ujabulele lobu buhle engadini noma kuvulandi, kubaluleke kakhulu ukukhumbula lokho ingaba kokubili elangeni nasemthunzini omncane, kodwa uma isimo sezulu sifudumele, kuyodinga isivikelo enkanyezini, ngaphandle kwalokho amaqabunga awo angasha.
Ayinazo izimpande ezihlaselayo, kodwa njengoba umqhele wayo ubanzi kuhle ukutshala okungenani amamitha angu-4 ukusuka ezindongeni, ezindongeni nakwezinye izitshalo aphakeme, ezindaweni ezine-asidi nezingenamanzi kahle. Ngakho, i Ummbila florida Liyokhula ngokukhululeka futhi niyokwazi ukuzindla ngalo lonke ubuhle bayo njengoba likhula.
Ukunisela kufanele kube ngokulinganisela. Ayimelani nesomiso, kodwa futhi ayimelani nokugcwala kwamanzi. Ngakho-ke, ngokomthetho, ngokunisela okungaba ngu-4 ngesonto ehlobo futhi cishe 2/ngesonto unyaka wonke, kuzoba kuhle. Sebenzisa amanzi emvula noma ungawusebenzisi umcako.
Ekugcineni, yithi iphindaphindeka ngembewu entwasahlobo, eqhuma cishe emasontweni amathathu inqobo nje uma itshalwe embedeni wezimbewu ngaphandle. Imelana nesithwathwa size sifike ku -18ºC.
