Middlemist Red
Detail about Middlemist Red:
Middlemist looks like rose flower found to be in deep pink color. The botanists also make long time research to find out flowering species related to middlemist red. One can be found in a garden in New Zealand and the other is situated in a greenhouse in Britain.This rare Middlemist Red flower is blooming in the "19th-century" conservation at Chiswick House with "1.2 million British pounds" with the support of the support of The Chiswick House and Gardens Trust and English Heritage; the gardens are in the final "stages of a 12.1m" restoration. And its plant common name is Middlemist Red this plast seed under the flower. And the most important Middlemist its a flowering plant.
Descriptions :
Camellias are evergreen shrubs or
small trees up to 20 m (66 ft) tall. Their leaves are alternately arranged,
simple, thick, serrated, and usually glossy. Their flowers are usually large
and conspicuous, one to 12 cm in diameter, with five to nine petals in
naturally occurring species of camellias. The colors of the flowers vary from
white through pink colors to red; truly yellow flowers are found only in South
China and Vietnam. Tea varieties are always white-flowered. Camellia flowers
throughout the genus are characterized by a dense bouquet of conspicuous yellow
stamens, often contrasting with the petal colors. The so-called
"fruit" of camellia plants is a dry capsule, sometimes subdivided in
up to five compartments, each compartment containing up to eight seeds.
Use by humans :
Camellia sinensis, the tea plant, is
of major commercial importance because tea is made from its leaves. The species
C. sinensis is the product of many generations of selective breeding in order
to bring out qualities considered desirable for tea. However, many other
camellias can be used to produce a similar beverage. For example, in some parts
of Japan, tea made from C. sasanqua leaves is popular.
Tea oil is a sweet seasoning and
cooking oil made by pressing the seeds of C. oleifera, C. japonica, and to a
lesser extent other species such as C. crapnelliana, C. reticulata, C. sasanqua
and C. sinensis. Relatively little-known outside East Asia, it is the most
important cooking oil for hundreds of millions of people, particularly in
southern China.
Ecology:
Mainly due to habitat destruction,
several camellias have become quite rare in their natural range. One of these
is the aforementioned C. reticulata, grown commercially in thousands for
horticulture and oil production, but rare enough in its natural range to be
considered a threatened species.
