How it's used

Botanical names in Cantonese often differ from standard Mandarin terms, and this specific name is used by local gardeners and flower enthusiasts. It refers to the distinct, intricate structure of the flower that resembles a rotating wheel. While it is the standard name for the plant, casual speakers might sometimes just refer to it by its scientific family name or generic flower terms if they are unfamiliar with the specific variety.
