10年前,倘若对人说起芦荟,免不了要费一番口舌。不待说起它的色泽形状、产地属性,单那名字,都不知要招致多少误会。而那时,家中正好有一株,是喜欢养花种草的父亲从朋友处觅得的。刚拿回时,并未看出它有何特别之处,只觉得那近乎透明的叶片绿得青翠极了,盈盈地带着几分冰清玉洁式的孤傲。但它并不单薄,叶片蕴含着的充沛的水分反倒给人以浑圆、饱满的韵致。尽管如此,芦荟却并不娇贵,10天半月不理它,它照样绿得有滋有味、有声有色。置身于摇曳多姿的花丛中,四季不改容颜的芦荟倒显出几分清幽、桀骜。再看它隔上一些时日便从根部冒出的新绿,我以为它和那多刺的仙人掌、倔强的牵牛花没什么分别,可以绽放在每一条寂寞小巷的深处,做着若有若无的点缀。 Ten years ago, if people talk about aloe, it will inevitably cost some words. Not to mention its color and shape, origin properties, single name, I do not know how much to be misunderstood. At that time, there was exactly one plant in my home, which I dreamed of from a friend who loved planting flowers and grass. When I got it back, I did not see anything special about it. I only felt that the almost transparent leaves were very greenery, and Ying Ying was carrying some of the lonely and jaguar loneliness. But it is not thin, leaves contain plenty of water but gives a round, full rhyme. However, Aloe Vera is not delicate, 10 days and a half ignore it, it is still green and full of flavor, vivid. Exposure to flowers in the swaying, the four seasons do not change appearance of aloe shows a bit quiet, 桀 骜. Look at it after a few days will emerge from the roots of the new green, I think it and that prickly cactus, stubborn morning glory no difference, you can bloom in the depths of each lonely alley, doing if If no embellishment.
