Thanks to Google Lens and my phone camera I have ready help in identifying my garden plants by name. Take a picture, submit it to Google Lens, and the name appears. This is exciting for me, being challenged in both technological and botanical knowledge. Now, it’s fun for me to point out and refer to my starburst, which until recently was just a beautiful two-color bush.
Not until its flowers bloom does the meaning of its name become clear. The flower resembles a shooting star or a firecracker, flinging out radiant beams while sitting stationary on a supportive stem. When the tree is full of shooting stars, first-time spectators are likely to react in the same way they would to the marvel of a shooting star in the heavens.
