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.

  • Cop30: UN accused of crackdown on Indigenous people – as it happened

    As the summit entered its second week, complex issues remain with anxiety growing over conference outcomes

    Colombia will host a first international conference on the phase out of fossil fuels in April next year, according to advocates of more ambitious action to eliminate the main source of the gases that are heating the planet.

    The South American country, which has demonstrated strong climate leadership in recent years, is among a group of 17 nations that have joined the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative which held a press conference on its plans at Cop30 on Monday.

  • France’s birds start to show signs of recovery after bee-harming pesticide ban

    Analysis shows small hike in populations of insect-eating species after 2018 ruling, but full recovery may take decades

    Insect-eating bird populations in France appear to be making a tentative recovery after a ban on bee-harming pesticides, according to the first study to examine how wildlife is returning in Europe.

    Neonicotinoids are the world’s most common class of insecticides, widely used in agriculture and for flea control in pets. By 2022, four years after the European Union banned neonicotinoid use in fields, researchers observed that France’s population of insect-eating birds had increased by 2%-3%. These included blackbirds, blackcaps and chaffinches, which feed on insects as adults and as chicks.

  • These rare whales had never been seen alive. Then a team in Mexico sighted two

    The search for a ginkgo-toothed beaked whale had taken five years, when a thieving albatross nearly ruined it all

    It was an early morning in June 2024 and along the coast of Baja California in Mexico, scientists on the Pacific Storm research vessel were finishing their coffee and preparing for a long day searching for some of the most elusive creatures on the planet. Suddenly a call came from the bridge: “Whales! Starboard side!”

    For the next few hours, what looked like a couple of juvenile beaked whales kept surfacing and disappearing until finally Robert Pitman, a now-retired researcher at Oregon State University, fired a small arrow from a modified crossbow at the back of one of them.

  • Country diary: Walking the storm path through an ever-changing pinewood | Amanda Thomson

    Abernethy, Cairngorms: Even in this part-plantation where there is much uniformity, high winds ensure the woodland can never stay the same

    After the summer’s cacophony of greens, the broadleafs among the Scots pines are turning – the larches to green-yellow and bronze, the birches to a warmer yellow, but turning to bronze and copper too. I’m walking along a path with a line of larchesand mostly pines behind. Storm Amy has made its presence felt, and a number of trees are windthrown.

    Through new gaps I see a couple of gnarly “granny” pines I’d not noticed before, so I head in towards them, crackling over fallen twigs and branches festooned with lichens. This area is for the most part plantation, so the trees are quite uniform in age, spacing and girth, with some granny outliers that speak to an earlier time. I find a storm path of sorts, diagonal lines where trees have dominoed, or where one has partially fallen and is resting on another. Each points north-east to a fault.

  • Nature not a blocker to housing growth, inquiry finds

    Commons committee report challenges ‘lazy narrative’ used by ministers that scapegoats wildlife and the environment

    Nature is not a blocker to housing growth, an inquiry by MPs has found, in direct conflict with claims made by ministers.

    Toby Perkins, the Labour chair of the environmental audit committee, said nature was being scapegoated, and that rather than being a block to growth, it was necessary for building resilient towns and neighbourhoods.

  • Bristol to launch world-first ‘clean power hub’ for festivals and film crews

    City council and regional authority collaborate to guarantee renewable mobile energy for next summer’s festival season

    Artists including Billie Eilish and Neil Young and festivals across the world have taken action to make their concerts more sustainable by harnessing green power.

    The concept is being taken a step further in the south-west of England next summer when a “clean power hub” is set up in Bristol that festivals, large gigs and film crews will be able to tap into.

    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.

  • 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.
