When I’m out for my morning walks, I’m always on the lookout for something to photograph.
These quick stops and then restarts at or above pre-stopping pace, create a form of HIIT.
Recently, this flower in a yard I passed by, caught my attention.
After I got home, I looked it up and was surprised at its many aliases:
heart-leaved bergenia,heartleaf bergenia, leather bergenia, winter-blooming bergenia, elephant-ears, elephant’s ears, Korean elephant-ear, badan, pigsqueak, Siberian tea, and Mongolian tea.
The one that made me smile and wonder why was “pigsqueak”.
