Chapter 273: Seeing with Eyesight
The smiling gentleman's orchid is elegant and solemn, suitable for sacrificial ceremonies, and can also be used to decorate the venue, decorate the hotel, beautify the office and home environment.
However, due to its large plant type and large land occupation, it is not suitable to be placed in a smaller room and desk; in addition, because of its slender leaves and darker color, it is contrary to the mainstream aesthetic trend of the current domestic orchid world.
Therefore, the Lesser Orchid is rarely cultivated in China, and is replaced by a smaller, larger, upward-open, and festive large-flowered Orchid.
But Luo Tong still likes this flower gentleman's orchid, and there is a pot of this flower gentleman's orchid that Sheng Qiwu moved down. The leaves are slender and long, hanging around the pot, taking up a lot of space on the coffee table.
The orchid under this pot has already bloomed, and the inflorescences are dense, one by one, and it is estimated that there are thirty or forty small flowers on each inflorescence. The flower color is very refreshing green, anyway, Luo Tong likes it very much, this green flower is very beautiful.
This other pot is the Shanghua Junzi Orchid, that is, the large-flowered Junzi Orchid. Its leaves are broad, the head is round, the leaves are short, and it is currently in the flowering period, which is a very traditional festive big red, and the red is bright and warm.
Wan Xiang was not very interested in this flower gentleman's orchid, and when he saw this flower gentleman's orchid, Wan Xiang's breathing was a little heavier.
He almost threw himself in front of the coffee table, starting from the bottom of the leaves of this junzi orchid, and reached the end of the leaves, and from time to time he used his fingers to measure some data of this junzi orchid.
The more this was measured, the more excited Wan Xiang's emotions became, and Luo Tong saw that his fingers were a little trembling. Luo Tong understands that this is the excitement of a flower lover when he sees his favorite flowers.
If anyone puts a pot of self-aware plants in front of her now, Luo Tong may be even more exaggerated than Wan Xiang's performance, in the final analysis, it is that individuals have personal preferences.
After admiring it like this for about ten minutes, Wan Xiang was addicted. He sat on the sofa reluctantly, his eyes still staring at this gentleman.
He let out a long sigh and was convinced: "Miss Luo is really a real person, I didn't expect that it wouldn't take long for Miss Luo to cultivate such a precious Junzi Orchid." ”
Luo Tong smiled: "Mr. Wan, do you see anything famous?" In Luo Tong's eyes, this plant is divided into two kinds, self-conscious and ordinary, so I really can't understand this pot of gentlemen Lan Luotong who Wan Xiang is very obsessed with.
She admits that this Junzi Lan is very beautiful, but she really doesn't know what the specific Dao Luo Tong is. This is not Wan Xiang, who knows how to do it, Luo Tong must seize this opportunity, live to be old, and learn from it.
Wan Yifeng's expression was confused, except for his interest in jade and jade, everything else was fine, and he didn't have anything special to love. Seeing that his grandfather was about to open the chatterbox, Wan Yifeng's ears also pricked up.
Wan Xiang stroked his beard, dragged the pot of big-flowered Junzi Orchid in front of him, and began to explain on the spot.
"Let's look at the brightness of the leaves of this gentleman's orchid first, it's more than ten o'clock in the morning, and the light in the living room is also good. Wan Xiang pointed to the leaf and continued: "This brightness is the brightness of the surface of the leaf in its natural state (not wiping). Its advantages and disadvantages are: wax bright, bright, bright, slightly bright, not bright. ”
Luo Tong looked at it intently, she waited for it to be gray before wiping it, and she hadn't wiped it for two days. Is it because she's too lazy to care at all?
Wan Xiang continued: "The leaves of this gentleman's orchid are very bright, Xiao Luo, do you see if this leaf looks like wax? ”
Luo Tong nodded with affection, she naturally saw it.
"Let's look at this delicacy again," Wan Xiang took a sip of water, and Sheng Qiwu refilled it for him with a good sense of time. "Fineness is how smooth the surface of the blade is. Generally, it is better to use observation or hand perception to identify, and it is better to use a magnifying glass to identify. Its advantages and disadvantages are: delicate, relatively delicate, general, relatively coarse, rough. ”
Luo Tong put his hand on the leaf according to his words, and began to touch the root of the leaf, until he touched the very end, the leaf was smooth and delicate, and there was basically no convex change.
"I think this Junzi Lan has been able to reach the level of delicacy," Wan Xiang has calmed down now, and he also has the heart to say slowly.
"And then there's the stiffness of the blade, which is the ability of the whole blade to resist bending. When comparing long and short blades, test at a distance of 10 cm from the top. The higher the rigidity, the better. Folk generally use hand bending test, and the harder the "plate", the better. ”
Wan Yifeng was also interested when he listened, he squatted in front of the coffee table, and tried it according to his words, this leaf is very hard, he has a little force in his hand, and the blade is only a little bent.
Wan Xiang saw Wan Yifeng's frizzy movements, and his eyelids jumped. "You better go aside, if you break it, it's a terrible thing. ”
Wan Yifeng touched his nose and moved back to the original flavor.
"Needless to say, the rigidity of this blade is also sufficient. ”
"The following is the thickness, which is the thickness of the mesophyll of the leaf cross-section. The average thickness of the edge and middle of the leaf at 5 cm at the top of the leaf was taken. Its advantages and disadvantages are: 1.6 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.2 mm, 1 mm, and less than 1 mm. The smaller the thickness difference between the edge and the middle, the better. ”
When Wan Xiang was about to find a ruler, a tape measure was handed over next to Sheng Qiwucong. As early as when he heard the thickness, Sheng Qiwu guessed that it was estimated to be used, wouldn't this come in handy?
Wan Xiang gave Sheng Qiwu an appreciative look, this young man really has eyesight, no wonder he can pull Luo Tong into his hand. At this moment, in Wan Xiang's eyes, Sheng Qiwu and Luo Tong are purely high climbing, and everyone is worthy of Luo Tong's skill of raising flowers.
Sheng Qiwu was very strange to understand Wan Xiang's posture, and he touched his nose. Look, his worries are not unreasonable, isn't this Luo Tong's excellence seen by others?
Wan Xiang took the tape measure, randomly selected a leaf, and measured it at the edge and middle of the top of the leaf. Generally speaking, the thinner it is at the edges, and the same is true when it is actually measured, but this difference is not much, and it is almost negligible.
Wan Xiang selected several leaves in turn, and the results were all like this, the average thickness of the leaves reached about 1.6 mm, of course, this is measured with a tape measure, the data is not very accurate, but Wan Xiang bet with his decades of experience in playing with flowers, the results are almost the same.
At these points, this pot of Junzi Orchid is already very good, but there are many points ahead. Seeing Luo Tong holding his little face and listening carefully, Wan Xiang continued to speak.
