This description may lack poetry, but it is certainly to the point. Recently, on a huge rhododendron tree growing in the well-manured soil of an English garden, someone was amazed to find at least 50 flowers on an inflorescence, in a splendid globe which would make a basketball look puny.
近來有人在肥料養分充足的英國園林裡見到高大的石楠，數一數，竟然一枝開了少說五十朵，花團錦簇，籃球也不足以形容了。
