Saranka

Saranka (Lilium mártagon), genus of lilies. Otherwise, curly lily or royal curls. Good afternoon friends. With you again. Saranka is a rare plant and is listed in the Red Book. It grows in mixed forests, in shady meadows and forest edges. This perennial low bulbous plant is a honey plant and medicinal plant. I immediately remember my childhood, how the guys and I went into the forest and thought that meeting a locust was lucky. They carefully dug it up and took it apart into scales and feasted on it. At that time there were a lot of locusts. Saranka has a straight, strong stem and lanceolate, smooth leaves. It blooms in July at the age of 3-4 years, the flowers are bent on elongated pedicels, pinkish with dark purple spots - hemp and red stamens and anthers. The flowers have a weak aroma and are pollinated by butterflies. Propagated by seeds and bulbs. The plant forms a large bulb consisting of succulent scales. The composition has been poorly studied. Used as a food product in raw form, baked and as a seasoning. The peoples of Yakutia use it as flour, the Kyrgyz as a seasoning in the preparation of sheep cheese. This medicinal plant has been used for a long time in folk medicine of Tibet, Siberia and the Far East as a wound-healing agent, relieves inflammation and toothache. Saranka is a very beautiful ornamental plant that has a number of useful properties, which led to its sudden disappearance in Russia. This rare plant must be preserved and protected from destruction.
