ENG: Blagaj's monument. In the spring of 1837, a local man showed a flower to Count Rihard Blagaj who was amateur botanist. He hadn't have seen this kind of plant yet so he asked some famous botanists who also didnt have any knowledge of this kind of daphne. Therefore the plant was named of the estate's owner - Daphne blagayana. The king Friderik August II (who was also an amateur botanist - it seems that this activity was very popular at that time) stopped in Polhov Gradec in 1838 while traveling to Montenegro. He visited the natural growing site of the just discovered plant. On the same year Count Rihard Blagaj raised this monument in honour of the king's visit.
