Fleo bulboso : Especie vivaz que se reproduce por estolones, formando un césped bastante denso de color verde claro. Tiene un excelente comportamiento invernal y no pierde su color con las bajas temperaturas. Es una de las especies cespitosas con mayor persistencia y buena resistencia al pisoteo. Debido a su origen(zonas frías de alta montaña) con la llegada del calor detiene su crecimiento y su color deriva hacia el verde grisáceo. Tolera las siegas frecuentes. 2, record 1, Spanish, - fleo%20bulboso

Bred on the rather poor land of Bretagne and exposed to a very rough climate, especially during winter, the Breton makes a very good agricultural horse, being strong and hardy and thriving on poor, indifferent food. There are three distinctive types of Breton horse: heavy-draught horse, Breton draught post horse and Breton mountain draught horse. 3, record 3, English, - postier%20Breton

Le cheval Breton actuel est le résultat d'une longue évolution et d'un long travail de sélection entrepris par les éleveurs à partir des variétés anciennes de chevaux indigènes. De nombreux croisements furent réalisés aux XVIIIe et XIXe siècles en vue d'améliorer ces variétés; le plus célèbre et le plus réussi résultant de l'accouplement d'étalons «Norfolk» importés de Grande-Bretagne et de juments du Léon. De ce croisement naquit le «Postier breton» dont la réputation s'étendit dans le monde entier. [...] Il existe deux types morphologiques : Le Trait de formule compacte, le Postier plus léger et plus étendu dans ses rayons et ses allures. 3, record 3, French, - postier%20breton
