Zhang Taiping dug the soil, and Ye Ling sowed the seeds according to the distance and method Zhang Taiping said, and while sowing seeds, Zhang Taiping also introduced the names of each seed to Ye Ling. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ\\qb5//

"Master, what kind of flower is this?" Ye Ling picked up another seed and asked.

Zhang Taiping glanced back and said, "This is an azalea." ”

"What does an azalea look like?" Ye Ling may have heard of azaleas, but he has not seen them.

The simple question stumped Zhang Taiping, he had seen the azalea and was familiar with it, but he didn't know what method to use to describe its appearance clearly: "This, the master really can't tell, just go back at noon and check the pictures on the Internet." ”

Rhododendron is one of the top ten famous flowers in China. Among all the ornamental flowers and trees, it can be called beautiful flowers and leaves, and it is suitable for ground plants and potted plants, and it is the most widely used.

Bai Juyi praised and said: "Idle folding two branches in the hand, look closely not like the world, this thing in the flower is Xi Shi, whip Rong peony medicine are all mother-in-law." In the natural distribution of rhododendrons in the world, there are many kinds and huge quantities, none of which can match the Chinese rhododendrons, and China is a treasure trove of rhododendron resources in the world! It is also the center of the world distribution of the genus Rhododendron. Nowadays, Jiangxi, Anhui and Guizhou take the rhododendron as the provincial flower, and there are as many as seven or eight cities designated as the city flower.

There are many species of Rhododendron, and the species commonly cultivated in China are: Hairy Juan, Summer Juan, Western Juan, Eastern Juan, Spring Juan, Sheep's Heel, Yingshan Red, Honeysuckle, Yunyin Rhododendron and so on.

However, the growth habits of rhododendrons vary greatly, and most of them are produced at high altitudes, preferring cool, humid climates, and scorching heat and dryness. Some species and horticultural varieties are more adaptable and drought tolerant, but they do not grow well on soils with poor clay weight or permeability.

Rhododendron has certain requirements for light, but is not resistant to sun exposure, and should have deciduous trees or shade shelters in summer and autumn to shield from the scorching sun, and often spray the ground with water. And planting azalea peach trees on Peach Blossom Mountain can block the strong sunlight for the rhododendrons. As for watering, there is no need to worry, there is also a gourd in the space that can store an unlimited amount of water.

Rhododendron shoots are generally in spring and autumn, and spring shoots are the main ones. It is most suitable to grow at the time of spring and summer, there is a short dormancy period in winter, and then with the rise of temperature, the flower buds gradually expand, generally open field cultivation in March ~ May flowering, high altitude areas are late to July ~ August flowering. The north is cultivated in greenhouses. It blooms in January~February.

And it is resistant to pruning, and the hidden buds are very easy to germinate after being stimulated, which can control the shape of the tree and reinvigorate the tree, which is a very good landscape flower, both indoor and outdoor are very suitable.

At that time, when buying the seeds, the boss told Zhang Taiping that this was Yingshan Red, a very common but very good variety of rhododendrons, which was named because it was red all over the mountain when the flowers bloomed. As for whether it is true or false, it can only be known after it has been planted and flowered.

Yingshanhong is known as the "king of woody flowers", ancient and modern Chinese and foreign literati and writers have made a lot of praise and recitation of Yingshanhong's beautiful poems, such as Yang Wanli's poem in the Song Dynasty, "Why do you need to see the spring breeze in the famous garden, all the way the mountain flowers live up to the nong." The Jinjiang River is like a brocade every day, and the clear stream reflects the red mountains. It celebrates the simple and tenacious vitality of Yingshan Hong.

Plant a rhododendron in each of the four corners around the house, and it will grow into a large pearl that blooms every year.

"What kind of seed is this?" Yeling continued to ask.

"Peony flowers."

"Oh, it's the national flower, I've seen this." Ye Ling said.

Peony is a perennial flower plant, grows slowly, the plant type is small, it is a unique woody precious flower in our country, known as "the national color and natural fragrance", "the king of flowers", and has long been regarded as a symbol of wealth and auspiciousness, prosperity and prosperity.

Zhang Taiping knew a lot about peonies and cuckoos, so he stopped his movements and asked, "Do you know that the peonies there are the most famous?" ”

Ye Ling knew that the peony was limited to knowing its name and seeing flowers a few times, so naturally he didn't know that the peony there was the most famous, and he didn't know what kind of varieties the peony had, so he shook his head and said, "I don't know." Then he looked at Zhang Taiping with big eyes and waited for him to explain.

Zhang Taiping cleared his throat and said: "Luoyang peony and Heze peony are the most famous. And about the peony in Luoyang, there are many related legends here. Without waiting for him to continue, he saw Zhang Xiaoqing walking up.

"What are the legends? I'll hear it too. Zhang Xiaoqing asked.

Zhang Taiping didn't say this from reporters, but asked with a smile: "Why did you run up and stop taking pictures below?" ”

"Oh, look at my memory." Zhang Xiaoqing patted his head and said: "The groom and bride below want to take two photos on the horse, and they have already taken two photos below, and I heard them say that there is a big turtle in the pond, only Brother Zhang, you can summon it, and if there is nothing to do below, I will simply help them come up and pass a word." ”

"Horseback riding, it's a small thing, but it's impossible if you want two people to ride together." Zhang Taiping said, took out the phone and called Fan Ming below, asking her to help with this matter below. After finishing, he asked Zhang Xiaoqing, "Do you want to take pictures of the big turtle now, or wait a while?" ”

"Wait a minute." Zhang Xiaoqing said: "Brother Zhang, continue the flowers just now, and tell the story of the peony flower. After finishing speaking, he and Ye Ling sat side by side opposite Zhang Taiping.

"It's fine." Zhang Taiping continued.

Luoyang peony is rooted in the land of Heluo, starting in the Sui Dynasty, flourishing in the Tang Dynasty, and Jiatian in the Song Dynasty.

Legend has it that on the first day of the first month of the second year of the Heavenly Grant, the snow fell in Chang'an, Xijing, Wu Zetian drank and wrote poems, and wrote an edict with a drunken pen: "The Ming Dynasty traveled to the garden, and the spring was known quickly, and the flowers were sent overnight, and the wind did not blow in the morning." "Hundreds of flowers are intimidated by this fate, open overnight, and the single peony does not violate the season, and the stamen does not open. Wu Zetian was furious, demoted the peony from Chang'an, sent it to Luoyang, and burned him at the stake. The peony suffered from this catastrophe, and its body was like coke; But the roots and branches are not scattered, standing still in the severe cold, when the spring breeze blows vigorously in the coming year, the flowers bloom more brightly, and are known as "scorched peony". Luoyang peony is well-known all over the world and is called "flower", Luoyang people cultivate peony, ornamental peony is also becoming a custom. Miss Peony surpasses Wu Zetian with her unique grace and luxury, and is regarded as the king of flowers and the first symbol of pride in the world in traditional Chinese consciousness.

It is also rumored that Tang Xuanzong Li Longji once watched peonies with Yang Guifei by the Agarwood Pavilion in the back garden. In order to remember the beautiful scenery in front of him, he called Li Bai to write poems, at this time, the poet was drunk and did not wake up, and he wrote three poems of "Qingping Tune" between half dreaming and half waking up: the clouds want to dress and the flowers want to look, and the spring breeze blows Revlon. If it weren't for the jade mountain, it would meet Yaotai under the moon.

A branch of red dew condenses incense, and Wushan breaks his intestines in vain. By asking who in the Han Palace is like, poor Feiyan leans on new makeup.

Famous flowers love each other, and the king looks at it with a smile. Explain that the spring breeze is infinitely hateful, and the agarwood pavilion is leaning on the north of the gan.

Xuanzong's concubines were all overjoyed and admired, and immediately asked Li Guinian to compose a song for the Liyuan musicians to sing. The beautiful scenery of the good day is enjoyable, but the peony flowers are in bloom. Tang Dynasty poets Liu Yuxi and Bai Juyi have a poem: "Only the peony is true to the country, and the capital is moved when the flowers bloom", "The flowers bloom and fall for 20 days, and the people in a city are crazy".

"So who said 'peony flowers die, and ghosts are also romantic'?" Zhang Xiaoqing asked with a smile.

Zhang Taiping thought for a while and replied: "The source of this sentence is Tang Xianzu's "Peony Pavilion". The story describes Du Liniang's dream of a scholar holding a willow branch and asking her to write a poem, and then the scholar was hugged to the peony pavilion and made a happy life. Later, it gradually evolved into this sentence, which was not said by a specific person. ”

"That's it." Zhang Xiaoqing nodded.

Zhang Taiping looked at her and smiled: "Of course, there is another theory, which is in mythological stories. Legend has it that Lu Dongbin, the pure yang real person at the head of the Eight Immortals, was once beaten to the mortal world for molesting the peony fairy, and this sentence was said when he was beaten to the mortal world. ”

"So what kind of peony is this?" Zhang Xiaoqing asked again.

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said, "The boss who sells seeds says that it is Jingyu, but the truth is unknown." ”

There are many colors of peony flowers, including pink, red, white, etc., the pink is crowned with pink, and the white is more famous for Jingyu. Therefore, from this point of view, the credibility of the words of the boss who sells seeds is very low. However, Zhang Taiping does not seek any precious varieties, as long as he can decorate the environment around the wooden house without looking so monotonous.
