Edelweis Flower is a very famous flower with its name as a perennial flower, this flower just grows and grows in the height of the mountain that allows full sun. This flower is able to live long enough so no wonder if this flower is called as a perennial flower .
The original edelweiss flower and often called the Everlasting Flower is actually the Leontopodium flower that we can find in the alpine mountains, and not the Javanese Edelweiss or Anaphalis javanica flowers. But because this flower is already famous with the name, the core of this flower is actually on the yellow powder that within 1 - 3 days after the bloom will fall out and leave only the petals flower.
This flower petals are durable and often 'classified' by mountain climbers. Flower Edelweiss is a species of endemic flowering plants that we often encounter in the mountains of Java, South Sumatra, South Sulawesi and Lombok.
Edelweiss flowers are very fond of full sunlight and in adult size can reach 8 meters in height, but in general ysng often we see in this mountain flower growth only reaches height less than one meter. Edelweiss flowers are often seen in April - August, around the end of July - August is the best bloom phase.
Flowers Edelweiss (Anaphalis javanica) is very popular among tourists. These flowers are often dried and sold as souvenirs. This situation caused the species of Edelweis flowering plants to experience scarcity. In the mountain area of Bromo - Tengger East Java, this flower plant is considered extinct. The number continues to decline making this plant is one of the protected plants in Gunung Gede National Park Pangrango .
But luckily the Javanese Edelweiss (Anaphalis Javanica) flowers are widely cultivated by farmers residing in the Dieng Plateau area in Central Java. These farmers cultivate it by planting seedlings grown from seeds and scattered around their parent trees and planted in upland areas of more than 1000 mdpl, on calcareous or sandy clays with a pH (acidity of soil) between 4-7.
