词汇	ageratum
词源	ageratum. “The flower that never grows old” translates the name of this flower, from the Greek a, “not,” and geras, “old age.” Actually, the Greeks were probably referring to another flower than our garden annual the ageratum, but it seemed a good name for this little, long-lasting, lavender-blue bedding plant, also known as the “everlasting flower.”
