Bogatstvo divljeg cvijeća Hvara

Objavljeno u Okoliš

Divljem cvijeću na Hvaru moguće se veseliti cijele godine. Čak tijekom najgore zime, teško da može proći tjedan, a da plamteće boje ne osvijetle ruralni dio otoka, što je u kontrastu s kamenitim i tamno zelenim, šumovitim dijelom otoka.

Bogatstvo divljeg cvijeća Hvara

Kad ne cvjeta, divlje bilje odumire ili se stapa s pozadinom te ponovno oživljava da označi godišnja doba s vlastitim raznobojnim doprinosom. Zadovoljstvo hodanja po poljima i šumama dok gledate širok spektar bilja koji doprinosi prirodnom veličanstvu otoka je bezgranično. Raznovrsni oblici biljaka čine dio privlačnosti otoka i svako godišnje doba ima nekoliko zanimljivih primjeraka. Sljedeća dva primjera su dio proljetne ponude.

Divlji zumbul

Tijekom proljeća, od travnja do lipnja, divlji zumbuli se pojave s vrlo lijepim ljubičastim glavama.
 
 
Divlji zumbul (leopoldia comosa ili muscari comosum) jedna je vrsta poznata kao dlakava presličica ili jestiva presličica. Ima plodne cvjetove koji su smeđe-zeleni, zvonoliki i stoje na stabljikama koje su otprilike podjednake dužine kao i cvjetovi ili malo duže. Na vrhu biljke, čuperak jarko ljubičastih sterilnih cvjetova na dugačkim stabljikama širi se u visinu. Pripada obitelji asteraceae u redu asparagala.
 

Kao što jedan od sinonima i sugerira, divlji zumbul je jestiv i koristi se u prehrani uglavnom u Italiji i Grčkoj. U Italiji, lukovice divljeg zumbula zovu se lampascioni ili cipolline selvatiche (male divlje kapule), u Grčkoj volvoi. Još uvijek nisam upoznala nikog u Dalmaciji tko ih jede, vjerojatno zato što su gorkog okusa, a većina Dalmatinaca je, čini se, danas ovisna o šećeru. Lukovice se kuhaju te se čuvaju ili u ulju ili ukiseljene. Uzimaju se kao stimulatori apetita ili diuretici. U Grčkoj su tradicionalno dio vegetarijanskih specijaliteta tijekom posta. Recepti za pripremu mi se čine kompliciranima pa ću se, za sad, zadovoljiti jednostavnim divljenjem predivnom cvijeću kad se pojavi po poljima tijekom proljeća.

Turovac

Godinama me fascinirala fina, okrugla, pernata glavica koja bi se naglo proširila po ruralnim krajevima u proljeće. Otkrivanje što ona točno jest bilo je izazovno. Ljudi su mi govorili da je vrsta maslačka, ali taj zaključak nije se činio ispravnim. Nikad nisam vidjela tu biljku u cvatu. Ono što sam vidjela izgledalo je kao stabljika s mršavim vretenima (što se može vidjeti frontalno s lijeva na slici ispod) koji su se otvarali da formiraju veličanstvenu sferu glavice.
 

Pomirila sam se da nikad neću saznati. Naposljetku, na njezinu ljepotu nije utjecalo moje neznanje. S obzirom na to da ionako loše pamtim imena, možda se i nije isplatilo tražiti. Onda sam slučajno posjetila atelje Marinke Radež u Dolu i vidjela sliku biljke u nastajanju. I to ne samo biljke koja me oduševljavala godinama, već je na njoj bio i cvijet koji mi nije bio poznat. Ispostavilo se da se cvijet javlja samo nakratko tijekom dana. Ili nisam prepoznala da je dio iste biljke ili ga nikad nisam vidjela. Marinka nije znala kako se biljka zove, ali sam imala dovoljno tragova da suzim izbor te sam ga konačno našla na odličnoj web-stranici koja se zove theseedsite.

Tako sam identificirala misterioznu vretenastu sferu kao turovac. Definitivno ne maslačak (taraxacum) iako oboje pripadaju redu asterales i obitelji asteraceae. Jedan član vrste, koji se sastoji od 140 različitih tipova, ljubičasti turovac je jestiv, uglavnom u korijenu te navodno ima okus školjaka te mladice i lišća.

  • Row over definition of ‘gender’ hangs over Cop30 plans to support women

    Advocates say conservative states’ push to define gender as ‘biological sex’ would backslide on decade-old language within the UN

    A row over the definition of the term “gender” threatens to bog down pivotal talks at the Cop30 climate summit.

    Before the UN talks in Brazil, hardline conservative states have pushed to define gender as “biological sex” over their concerns trans and non-binary people could be included in a major plan to ensure climate action addresses gender inequality and empowers women.

  • ‘The glacier is slowly melting, it’s clearly visible’ – This is climate breakdown

    The mountains have always been part of our lives. But now they pose a new threat and we need to take action. This is Saúl’s story

    LocationHuaraz, Peru

    DisasterLake Palcacocha glacier melt

    Saúl, a Quechua-speaking mountain guide, farmer and father who lives in the Andean highlands, was the lead plaintiff in a landmark climate lawsuit against the German energyfirm RWE. On 28 May, thehigherregionalcourt of Hamm dismissed his case on the grounds that there was no concrete threat to Saúl’s home. However, it held that major greenhouse gas emitters could be accountable for the impacts of those emissions under German law.

  • London congestion charge to rise to £18 – and electric vehicles will have to pay

    Motoring groups criticise changes for making it ‘harder to go green’ though discounts of up to 50% will apply

    London’s congestion charge will rise by 20% in January from £15 to £18 and electric vehicle drivers will be liable to pay to enter the heart of the capital for the first time.

    EVs will no longer be exempt from the levy, Transport for London said, but will pay a lower rate. Electric car drivers will get a 25% discount, paying £13.50 a day, while electric vans and HGVs will pay £9 – 50% of the full charge.

  • Hundreds of thousands to lose heat pump subsidies in Reeves’s budget plan

    Exclusive: Supporters say grants largely going to middle-class households, but experts warn move will slow transition from gas boilers

    Hundreds of thousands of homeowners will lose their right to subsidies for eco-friendly heat pumps as a result of government plans to bring down energy bills at the budget.

    Rachel Reeves, the chancellor, is planning to announce a series of measures to bring down energy bills amid concerns the country’s stubbornly high cost of living is driving millions of voters to Reform UK.

  • Fossil fuel projects around the world threaten the health of 2bn people

    Exclusive: ‘Deep-rooted injustices’ affect billions of people due to location of wells, pipelines and other infrastructure

    A quarter of the world’s population lives within three miles (5km) of operational fossil fuel projects, potentially threatening the health of more than 2 billion people as well as critical ecosystems, according to first-of-its-kind research.

    A damning new report by Amnesty International, shared exclusively with the Guardian, found that more than 18,300 oil, gas and coal sites are currently distributed across 170 countries worldwide, occupying a vast area of the Earth’s surface.

  • Country diary: Feeding frenzies really live up to their name | Mary Montague

    Tyrella Beach, County Down: The surface of the sea is churning with desperate fish and hungry seabirds. This is life and death down the end of a telescope

    Out to sea there is a squadron of juvenile great black-backed gulls, each one dark as a witch’s cape against the tide’s limpid sheen. I turn my scope to match their flight, chasing them until they splash down at the edge of a messy raft of birds.

    At first I just tick off the species: adult herring, common and great black-backed gulls, dipping their heads almost casually into the water; a gannet irritably wielding its sword-like bill at the mob; razorbills and guillemots in their seasonal tuxedos, diving down and popping up around the larger birds. Askance of the main fray, cormorants buck smoothly under the surface and more gulls tip from the sky. When a winter‑white black‑headed gull struggles back into the air with a silver rag hanging from its bill, I pull back my scopeand finally realise what’s happening. I’m witnessing a feeding frenzy – a bait ball.

  • Amid squabbles, bombast and competing interests, what can Cop30 achieve?

    Climate summit in Brazil needs to find way to stop global heating accelerating amid stark divisions

    “It broke my heart.” Surangel Whipps, president of the tiny Pacific nation of Palau, was sitting in the front row of the UN’s general assembly in New York when Donald Trump made a long and rambling speech, his first to the UN since his re-election, on 23 September.

    Whipps was prepared for fury and bombast from the US president, but what followed was shocking. Trump’s rant on the climate crisis – a “green scam”, “the greatest con job ever perpetrated”, “predictions made by stupid people” – was an unprecedented attack on science and global action from a major world leader.

  • Less arguing, more action: will Brazil’s unorthodox approach to Cop30 work?

    Host uses Indigenous concepts and changes agenda to help delegates agree on ways to meet existing climate goals

    Shipping containers, cruise ships, river boats, schools and even army barracks have been pressed into service as accommodation for the 50,000 plus people descending on the Amazon: this year’s Cop30 climate summit is going to be, in many ways, an unconventional one.

    Located in Belém, a small city at the mouth of the Amazon river, the Brazilian hosts have been criticised for the exorbitant cost of scarce hotel rooms and hastily vacated apartments. Many delegations have slimmed down their presence, while business leaders have decamped to hold their own events in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

  • Lula’s balancing act: Cop30 Amazon summit juggles climate and social priorities

    Brazil’s president welcomes world leaders while navigating divided government, promising action on deforestation and emissions

    Brazil’s president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, has welcomed world leaders to Belém for the first climate summit in the Amazon, where conservationists hope he can be a champion for the rainforest and its people.

    But with a divided administration, a hostile Congress and 20th-century developmentalist instincts, this global figurehead of the centre left has a balancing act to perform in advocating protection of nature and a reduction of emissions.
