蒲公英 is a BIRD!

Jay Chou just released his new album. As usual, with songs that touched most hearts. One of such is 蒲公英的约定

Someone told me 蒲公英 is a bird, and said how can you make a pact with flowers? Has anyone made a pact with birds?

蒲公英，学名Taraxacum，又称黄花地丁，是亚热带常见的一种一年或两年生草本植物。蒲公英的英文名字Dandelion来自法语dent-de-lion，意思是狮子牙齿，是因为蒲公英叶子的形状象一嘴尖牙。蒲公英叶子从根部上面一圈长出，围着一两根花茎。花茎是空心的，折断之后有白色的乳汁。花为亮黄色，由很多细花瓣组成。成熟之后，花变成一朵圆的蒲公英伞，被风吹过会分为带着一粒种子的小白伞。各国儿童都以吹散蒲公英伞为乐。
