I know it is a bit off-topic,...
I know it is a bit off-topic, but by hiking on the moraine slope below "Rifugio Alpini" I saw my first Edelweiss (lat. leontopodium alpinum). I don't know if the americans know this flower but in Europe it's quite popular but also very seldom (July 14, 2002)

Voted 10/10

Americans know Edelweiss from the
Hollywood movie "The Sound of Music"
starring Christopher Plummber and
Julie Andrews. It is a classic.
