Mo Li Hua

"Mo Li Hua" is a Chinese folk song of the "xiǎodiào" genre, from the Jiangnan region. The song is usually dated to the 18th century reign of the Qianlong Emperor, though some argue it is Ming era (pre-1644). Over time, many regional variations gained popularity in China and abroad.

Jasmine

Flower

Flowers, also known as blossoms and blooms, are the reproductive structures of flowering plants. Typically, they are structured in four circular levels around the end of a stalk. These include: sepals, which are modified leaves that support the flower; petals, often designed to attract pollinators; male stamens, where pollen is presented; and female gynoecia, where pollen is received and its movement is facilitated to the egg. When flowers are arranged in a group, they are known collectively as an inflorescence.
