western redbud การใช้

In spring, a Western redbud tree in full bloom offers a lush and vivid cerise contrast to the stark gray-green limestone of the pavilion.
The related "'western redbud "', " Cercis occidentalis ", ranges from California east to Utah primarily in foothill regions.
Starting with lower elevations in the foothills around Shasta Lake, north of Redding, the forests and woodlands are dominated by gray pine, knobcone pine, ponderosa pine, blue oak, California coffeeberry and western redbud.
Thompson knew them all : the fuzzy felted mullein leaves served as diapers; the flower buds of the slender multitrunked western redbud tree went into salads; strawberry guava supplied fruit that is still prized; the tips of yucca fronds made good needles or awls; the seeds of the chinaberry trees were strung together in rosaries; the lovely light blue flowers and shiny crinkled leaves of low-growing " Carmel creeper " ceanothus got turned into soap; and so on.
