おもしろい事実

In some parts of Italy, people gather the young leaves and shoots to cook and eat them like spinach or asparagus!

Its scientific name, *Silene*, might come from Silenus, a portly figure in Greek mythology, just like the flower's puffy shape!

The pretty white petals of this flower are deeply split, making them look like ten separate petals, but there are actually only five!

You might hear its dried seeds rattle inside the papery 'bladder' if you shake it, making a tiny natural maraca!
