见过大蒜开花吗？(Ever seen garlic bloom?)

这些原始的白色花朵是野生大蒜植物，当你想到花朵时，可能不会想到它们。如果你参观德国图林根州的海尼奇国家公园，你可以仔细看看。这个国家公园成立于1997年，旨在保护其古老的山毛榉林，那里长满了郁郁葱葱的落叶树。野生大蒜是春天的热情使者，早春时节在世界各地的温带气候中开花。这种植物原产于亚洲，但在德国种植广泛，深受欢迎，以至于许多城市都会组织节日来庆祝芳香的田野。事实上，德国的埃伯巴赫是一个拥有野生大蒜商标的首都。该镇每年春天都会举办为期一个月的野生大蒜交易会。

These pristine, white blooms are wild garlic plants, probably not what comes to mind when you think of flowers. You can get a closer look if you visit the Hainich National Park in Thuringia, Germany. This national park was founded in 1997 to protect its ancient beech forest, which is full of lush deciduous trees. Wild garlic, a zesty messenger of spring, blooms in early spring in temperate climates around the world. The plant is native to Asia, but it’s widely grown and enjoyed in Germany—so much so that many cities organise festivals to celebrate the aromatic fields. In fact, Eberbach, Germany is a trademarked wild garlic capital. The town hosts a month-long wild garlic fair every spring.
