설명 Edelweiss Wallpaper

Leontopodium nivale, commonly called edelweiss, is a well-known mountain flower, belonging to the daisy or sunflower family, Asteraceae.
The plant prefers rocky limestone places at about 1,800–3,000 metres (5,900–9,800 ft) altitude. It is non-toxic, and has been used in traditional medicine or folk medicine as a remedy against abdominal and respiratory diseases.
The dense hair appears to be an adaptation to high altitudes, protecting the plant from cold, aridity, and ultraviolet radiation.
As a scarce, short-lived flower found in remote mountain areas, the plant has been used as a symbol for Alpinism, for rugged beauty and purity associated with the Alps and Carpathians, and as a national symbol, especially of Romania, Austria, Bulgaria, Slovenia, and Switzerland.
According to folk tradition, giving this flower to a loved one is a promise of dedication.
