Can't stop touching it!

Not seen it before. Only heard it in a song. Sound of music maybe.

@Sussanah this is different to the Swiss edelweiss.

This is gorgeous tho @brightcolours Wonder what the other one is. Will look it up. L

Swiss #edelweiss is an alpine plant and has small white flowers. @Sussanah

@brightcolours oh ok Katie don’t they make wine from it?

Wiki says this about Edelweiss wine: “Edelweiss is a very winter-hardy wine grape variety, pale green in color, derived from crossing the Minnesota 78 and Ontario grapes. It was developed by Elmer Swenson in 1980 in cooperation with the University of Minnesota.“ Scientific name: Vitis vinifera 'Edelweiss' @Sussanah
