| Edelweiss description |

|
Leontopodium nivale, commonly called edelweiss (English pronunciation ( listen)), is a well-known mountain flower, belonging to the daisy or sunflower family, Asteraceae. * The plant prefers rocky limestone places at about 1,8003,000 metres (5,9009,800 ft) altitude. It is non-toxic, and has been used in traditional medicine or folk medicine as a remedy against abdominal and respiratory diseases. The dense hair appears to be an adaptation to high altitudes, protecting the plant from cold, aridity, and ultraviolet radiation. As a scarce, short-lived flower found in remote mountain areas, the plant has been used as a symbol for alpinism, for rugged beauty and purity associated with the Alps and Carpathians, and as a national symbol, especially of Romania, Austria, Bulgaria, Slovenia, and Switzerland. According to folk tradition, giving this flower to a loved one is a promise of dedication. |
