Mugunghwa (무궁화) (Hibiscus syriacus) is the national flower of South Korea. The mugunghwa first became the national flower of Korea during the Japanese colonial era (1910-1945) when it was overwhelmingly selected by the people as the floral symbol of their nation. Many Koreans attempted to counter colonial Japan's racial assimilation policy by planting mugunghwa nationwide symbolizing independence for Korea. The mugunghwa which regularly returns a day after seemingly having faded away became a symbol of a desire for a Korea independent of Japan. The actual term mugunghwa was first employed during the Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392). During the Goryeo Dynasty and Joseon Dynasty eras (1392-1910), it was common practice for kings to reward those who successfully passed the civil service examinations with paper made mugunghwa.

Alcea Rosea - Malvone - Malvarosa Presenta grandi foglie alterne ovato-lobate, bollose. Il fusto, di portamento eretto, e le foglie sono ricoperti d'una fitta peluria che rende la pianta ispida al tatto. I fiori sono ascellari, con colori dal bianco al rosa al rosso, anche screziati. Esistono inoltre varietà viola, blu e quasi nere. È pianta rustica dal vigoroso sviluppo, capace di vegetare allo stato selvatico anche in condizioni estreme (bordo strada, terreni aridi... questa era a bordo di una strada acciottolata). In letteratura è descritta variamente come pianta annuale o biennale e la ripresa vegetativa della pianta nel medesimo sito è attribuita ad auto-semina. Altrove, in accordo con quanto riporta l'esperienza dei coltivatori (soprattutto se si è lasciato sviluppare il fittone radicale senza molestare la rosetta basale), la pianta è descritta come perenne. Presenta un accescimento molto rapido in primavera-estate, periodo in cui dalla rosetta basale si slanciano uno o più fusti verticali recanti le infiorescenze i quali raggiungono rapidamente l'altezza di 1,5 - 2,5 m o più. La fioritura perdura fino ad inizio autunno. Ai primi freddi invernali i fusti si disseccano e la pianta si riduce ad un basso (20 - 30 cm ) cespo globoso di caratteristiche camefite, forma sotto la quale la pianta sverna allo stato di sempreverde. La radice della pianta è un fittone carnoso bianco; si insinua facilmente a grandi profondità (circa 1 m) anche in terreni compatti e sassosi, ed ha numerose indicazioni farmacologiche.
