Dried casings and seeds of the Chinese lantern plant (@ Skip Moody-Rainbow/Corbis)
comments,
- As these casings dry out, little red lights appear inside.""It\s easy to see how this plant got its nickname
- These botanical beauties are just starting to show…""Their true inner selves
- Herbalists have long used this perennial and its seeds to treat a wide range of maladies, including coughs, fevers, and sore throats.""It also has a green relative who delivers a kick in the kitchen
- The Japanese love these plants so much, they throw a festival for them each year in Tokyo\s oldest temple.""To keep a tradition going for 500 years, this plant must be some party animal
