Definition: The word "Adali" refers to a type of flower that is commonly found in Central Africa, specifically in West Africa. The term "Adali" means "cactus flower" in Wolof, a language spoken in Senegal, Gambia, and Mauritania. It's also known as "Salaou", which translates to "red flowers" in French. The name was used by European explorers for the first time in 1583 when they described the adali as "red cactus". Adalis are often found growing along roadsides or other areas where people might see them, and their blooms can be very bright in color, especially during summer months. They're a popular flower to grow in gardens and parks. The exact meaning of "Adali" varies depending on the region, but it's generally used for cactus flowers that are not typically associated with other types like cacti or succulents.
