leontopodium alpinum

That is the latin name for Edelweiss. The common name comes from German edel, meaning "noble", and weiß (also spelled weiss) "white", thus signifying "noble whiteness". [wikipedia]

Chloe: "go wikipedia"
M: "eh?"
Chloe: "search for edelweiss"
M: "what an ugly flower"
Chloe: "yeah, if you wanna proof your love to someone, you should go climb the mountain and get one of these for your girl"
M: "you mean boy right?"
Chloe: "yeah in your case would be a boy"
M: "that's too easy"
Chloe: "what do you mean too easy, who would climb that high, here it said and quote"

"The plant is unequally distributed and prefers rocky limestone places at 2000–2900 m altitude."[wikipedia]

M: "I used to climb limestone mountains when I was in highschool back in Indo, and we occasionally found these flowers, and not knowing that it means a lot for our bf/gf we just ignore them, but now that you mentioned it, I recall that mum used to tell me about this flower"
Chloe: "next time if you go back there and climb, get me one okay, hahaha"
M: "the flower will die when I reach here, as if our border security will let plants pass the border"***
