Mucuna birdwoodiana 禾雀花

Dream birdwood flowers (Mucuna birdwoodiana) are famous for their sparrow-like appearance and are classified as a national second-level protected plant. The green, white or purple blossoms hanging in bunches resemble a waterfall coming down from the trees. In Shenzhen, their full flower period is around the Qingming Festival, and visitors can find these flowers at Yangtai Mountain, Meilin Mountain, Tanglang Mountain, Maluan Mountain, Donghu Park and other locations.
