聊到什麼樣的花只在夜半開,大家第一個想到的大都是曇花, 

但除了曇花外,晚香玉、夜來香、月見草、紫茉莉、花煙草

都是只在傍晚、晚上或夜半開花,然後隔天清晨便花落, 

同屬於這一夜之間花開花落,彷彿是做了一場仲夏夜之夢的花, 

還有這篇要跟大家分享的主角 --- 「穗花棋盤腳」,她還有著更雅致的別名 「玉蕊」與「水茄苳」。

南港是一處寶地,相較於內湖開發得慢,但也因此保有了依山(南港山)面河(基隆河)的大自然風景,這幾年隨著四鐵共構,南港的面貌有了很大的轉變,新舊建築交錯,跟內湖一樣,在地居民不用特別遠赴陽明山與淡水,才能欣賞到優雅的山水景緻,以四鐵共構的南港車站為中心軸,往南在忠孝東路七段往上看可欣賞到雄偉翠綠的南港山景,往北到松河街,騎著Youbike就可暢遊基隆河岸風光,十分便捷。 

 

六月天進入盛夏,週日清晨六點出外運動,一路漫行逛到了南港捷運站2號出口旁,忠孝東路七段382號的「台北市極限運動訓練中心」,意外在中心旁的小河邊發現這棵一夜之間花開花落,可說是夏日限定的濕地植物「穗花棋盤腳」(Powderpuff Tree),被它粉紅獨特的花瓣所吸引,停下了腳步駐足觀賞,看到她時除了還懸掛在樹上迎風搖曳的粉白相間的美麗花影,格外令人驚艷。

根據台灣景觀植物網頁介紹,「穗花棋盤腳」(Powderpuff Tree)的樹,它的學名Barringtonia racemosa,又稱為「玉蕊」與「水茄苳」它的粉白色花瓣十分醒目吸睛。


「穗花棋盤腳」是玉蕊科棋盤腳樹屬的常綠喬木,原產亞洲、大洋洲、非洲熱帶地區的河口溼地紅樹林及海岸林、澳大利亞及太平洋島嶼上都有它的蹤影,在台灣北部如宜蘭、基隆及金山海岸,以及南部恆春半島的海岸地區,為常見的植物。


「穗花棋盤腳」全年都會開花結果,但盛開花期主要集中在六到九月,可說是「夏日限定」的花種,它適合全日照環境,通常生長於淡水的沼澤濕地或河川溪床上,為耐水濕的濕地植物,正是我與她美麗相遇的地點,當然她在陸地栽培亦能生長良好。

最特別的是她跟曇花一樣都是夜間開花,從晚上7-8點左右開花,到了隔天清晨就會陸續凋零墜落,花開花落僅在一夜之間,讓人看見她的美麗與哀愁。

「穗花棋盤腳」(Powderpuff Tree)天然分枝少,通常不須進行修剪。葉片易受毛蟲危害,這點從野生的樹上也可看出。互生橢圓形葉片有鋸齒,葉片常叢生於枝頂,總狀花序自枝端或老枝長出,花序下垂,長度可達1公尺以上。披針形白色花瓣4枚。雄蕊白色或粉紅色,雌蕊桃紅色,花朵造型優美有清香,果實纖維質,能漂浮於水上,借由海潮傳播。也因為「穗花棋盤腳」(Powderpuff Tree)適合作為庭園樹與行道樹使用,尤其在夜晚活動頻繁的地點如市區廣場、公園等位置種植,更能凸顯夜晚開花的特色。

下回晚上或清晨時分有機會造訪南港,不妨來「台北市極限運動訓練中心」,意外在中心旁的小河邊發現這棵一夜之間花開花落,可說是夏日限定的濕地植物「穗花棋盤腳」。
