神奇的颜色不断
取悦我好奇的眼睛。
深浅不一的金色和深红色
仿佛瞬间驱逐了绿色。
灿烂的秋天
搬进了我的花园。
向日葵，大丽花，
抬起他们明艳、智慧的脑袋。
——《秋天的颜色》乔伊斯·约翰逊
Amazing colors around
delight my wondering eye.
All shades of gold and crimson
have banished the green.
Autumn in all its glory
has moved into my garden.
Sunflowers, deep red dahlias,
raise their brilliant heads.
——《Autumn Colors》 JOYCE JOHNSON
大丽花起源于墨西哥，也是墨西哥的国花。
古代阿兹特克人热衷于种植大丽花，
中空的茎，20英尺高。阿兹特克人是
一个足智多谋的民族，他们用这些花作为水源，
切下来的茎也可以用来装水。
当西班牙人在16世纪到达时，
他们征服了阿兹特克人，
并让他们的植物学家把各种各样
的植物从这片土地带回西班牙，包括大丽花。
The Aztecs, a resourceful people,
used these flowers as a source of water.
The cut stems could also be
refilled and used to carry water.
When the Spanish arrived in the 16th century,
they conquered the Aztec people and had their
botanists take various plants from the land
back to Spain with them. One of the plants
that they chose to take was the tree dahlia.
植物和种子是在西班牙马德里的皇家植物园培育的。
大丽花有别于其它花材没有根部，相反，
它们可以从茎中生长出来。由于这个原因，
最初，他们是像土豆一样种植的。
种子和茎被卖到整个欧洲，
很快这种植物就登上了世界之巅。
而18世纪的荷兰则是大规模
将大丽花培育成丰富色彩的国度。
Plants and seeds were cultivated in
Spain at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Madrid.
Dahlias do not have normal roots. Instead,
they develop or can be grown from tubers.
For this reason, they were initially cultivated
as you would potatoes. However, their roots were not
nearly as popular as the flowers have become.
The seeds and tubers were sold all over Europe
and soon this plant was on top of the world,
and till 18th century, dahlias have been
developed in vast number of
colors that we know today.
传说中大丽花曾是拿破仑情人约瑟芬的挚爱花卉，
依次排开的花瓣更是将
大丽花“大吉大利”之意淋漓诠释。
