34, Flower Market

After the two families finished lunch, because the conversation was particularly speculative, and because it was the New Year, this meal was eaten for three or four hours, and it was already more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon when the meal was finished. The people in the hotel said that the busiest time for flowers was at night, so we decided to walk from the hotel to see the flower market.

The layout of the hotel itself, like a big flower market, and are all boutique flowers, the layout is very artistic, it is already pleasing to the eye, we listened to Li Yimeng's suggestion, first on the roof garden, the roof garden design is very exquisite, the winding path, all are white sand and gravel rice, like a river, meandering, the beautiful arc, the green space is so soft, people feel very comfortable, walking on the winding path, the sound of sand and gravel rice clicking, let you feel a sense of movement in the flow, Along the tall glass curtain, there are more than a dozen parasols, under the sunshade city, is a table and a few benches, Mr. Zhang specially asked for a few bottles of mineral water, a few of us sat on the bench under the parasols, as far as the eye can see, there are various forms of high-rise buildings everywhere, as well as the chessboard-style spacious road, do about half an hour, the breeze with the two couples, here while drinking water, while chatting leisurely. Li Yimeng, the guide for Liu Xiaojuan, turned around this roof garden in detail, and saw the sunken flower beds, European-style sculptures and fountains, and a miniature water landscape, with the waterwheel spinning on it, and the sound of rushing water splashed water droplets. Around the small pool, there is a piece of pink raspberry planted, and the pink tidbits decorate this garden with elegance and dignity, full of pink dreams.

The rooftop garden is not big, and half an hour here is enough. So we went downstairs, according to the direction of the waiter, along the road, walking on the sidewalk, a piece of beautiful street greenery, and a row of sheep's foot nails as street trees, straight stretched to the bank of the Pearl River, we walked for about an hour, because while walking, while shopping the roadside shops, today all the shops are discounted and rewarded, the goods inside are also dazzling, dizzying, just like walking while walking, unconsciously came, Binjiang West Road, I was immediately attracted by the sea of flowers here.

Guangzhou's New Year's Festival flowers are really dazzling, before the Spring Festival to visit the flower market, just like the annual Spring Festival party, have become a thing that Guangzhou people must do, people on the road are three or three twos, must be a family to visit the flower market, as the time is getting later and later, the flower market is more and more, a dazzling array of flowers, colorful crowds, the beautiful Pearl River bank, has become three scenic lines. The rolling Pearl River is from Guizhou, not far from thousands of miles to flow here, our hometown Guizhou has a Miao Ling, which is the watershed of the Yangtze River and the Pearl River, the north side of Miao Ling is the Yangtze River Basin, and the south side of Miao Ling is the Pearl River Basin. Looking at the rippling waters of the Pearl River, it seems that I have seen my relatives again in my hometown, and I can smell the breath of our hometown in Guizhou, which embodies the yearning and beauty of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.

The streets and alleys of Guangzhou can be seen everywhere with strings of bright "flowers" hanging on the trees. Flower farmers even use the sidewalks on the streets or the open spaces near the vegetable market to put dozens or hundreds of pots of large and small oranges for the public to choose. Of course, flowers are also indispensable in this, but the flowers at this time can't sing the protagonist, at best they are a trick.

At this time, the flower market has become a world of flowers and a sea of people. All kinds of flowers are gorgeous and colorful, competing for wonder and dazzling; People who enjoy flowers and buy flowers are like crucian carp crossing the river, bustling. It's really "people swim in flowers, flowers laugh in people." ”

As soon as you enter the flower market, one of the largest and most dazzling flower stalls does not have a single flower, but a variety of rich bamboos. Flower farmers ingenuity, the rich bamboo to the fullest, around the flower bed, a variety of large weaving into the art of the rich bamboo, only the upper layer of the leaves is green, white and green straw, by their ingenious weaving into a variety of shapes, in the door of the hotel to see the shape of the rich bamboo, that is simply more ordinary, here there are Fu Lu Shou people's modeling, as well as a double row of fence modeling, more people to play the imagination is that they weave the rich bamboo into a living screen, these screens you can move, You can change the position, you can also change the angle, the screen also has a variety of shapes of leaky windows, these leaks are also a variety of geometric shapes, just like walking in the garden wall of Suzhou Garden, there are triangles, there are quadrangular, there are rectangular, and hexagonal, octagonal, vase type really has an immersive feeling, the boss holds a few rich bamboos for flower arrangement, the bottom is straight, the end is spiral, and finally the buds of the rich bamboo, there are a few small lanterns tied to it, small red pieces of decorations, It will really arouse your desire to buy, and then look at those hydroponic rich bamboos in the pots, and let them keep the pagoda-shaped, conical-shaped, oops, anyway, there are a lot of dazzling colors, so that you are dizzy.

And the rich bamboo next to a bigger stall, that is the stall that sells peach blossoms, they put the peach blossoms, the flower type is particularly beautiful, the posture of the tree is also particularly beautiful, there are stretched, there are hanging, there are welcome pine type, there are with soil balls, can be planted in the yard or in the pot, and there are no soil balls only dry without roots, that is used up this year, buy new ones next year, there are a few flowers on the branches of the peach tree, there are white, pink, and purple, the most vivid is of course red, The flowers are only one or two open, but the buds of the whole flower branch are already full of cracked mouths, and they will bloom for you in a day or two when you get home, making you feel that if you don't buy it today, you will stagger the blooming season tomorrow. In particular, the trunk of the peach tree is a little reddish brown, and it is extremely smooth, and the bark is actually fluorescent, which is really reverie, as if it is a peach blossom tree taken down by the immortals, and it will be rich and auspicious.

Out of this stall, a large piece of white jasmine, the strong jasmine fragrance, refreshing, let you revel in it, as if this is a sea of flowers, the world of incense, the pure color of the white makes your heart clean, let you yearn for purity, you can't help but praise the gift of nature, it is really as white as clouds and white as snow, so warm, let people feel the magic of the Creator, not only can you see the purity of the white, but also smell the white fragrance, will make you drunk, like a dream.

In front of a stall selling daffodils, Li Yimeng carefully looked at a pot of daffodils. Before the owner of the flower stall could speak, he said in a whisper: "Daffodils like warmth, it not only has a high ornamental value, but also has a very strong fragrance." Daffodils only bloom around the Spring Festival, so the people of Guangzhou call it the New Year flower. The flower language of the daffodil is the same as its name: auspicious, beautiful, pure love, respect. However, in this Spring Festival of family reunion, it only represents reunion and longing. This year's Spring Festival is a little cold, put a pot of daffodils in the living room, if you have the interest in enjoying the flowers and the mood to watch, the warmth of the daffodils will naturally come with you...... "Ah! When it comes to daffodils, it seems that he is not only an expert in the cultivation of daffodils, but also a writer who loves daffodils. Before he finished speaking, Li Yimeng couldn't stop his sales pitch and decided to buy a pot of daffodils at his stall.

Afterwards, we continued to walk through the sea of colorful flowers. Tangerines, peach blossoms, chrysanthemums, peonies, plum blossoms, and many other plants that I can't name. Except for the lotus flowers and water lilies that are not seen in summer, other flowers may be gathered here.

The most popular thing in the flower market is orange trees. Orange trees, full of fruits. small pots, small fruits, many seeds such as the scattered fruits of the goddess, and sporadic hidden white buds; The big basin is taller than a man's head, with a large waist and a wide waist, and the whole body is covered with huge kumquats. The shapes of the pots look very well designed, and I have to admire the artistic talent of the flower farmers. A small pot, even if it is a plant, dotted with a few small grasses, does not look monotonous. The large pots, the tree shapes have a little rest to the left and right, there are standing solemn and solemn, and there are also chorus, with bright bowls, where they are placed are artistic treasures.

Colorful phalaenopsis, not as simple and white as jasmine, his kind of white, a little milky, lighter and more clear, the pink phalaenopsis is like a pink dream, full of temptation, full of charm, the red phalaenopsis is more people feel the advent of spring, the brightness of the flowers, the festive dress, phalaenopsis assembled together, if it is the same color, then elegant and noble, if several phalaenopsis orchids, various colors are matched together according to the level, it is another scenery, In the pot of phalaenopsis, if you decorate the dots, straw sandal flowers, manjusri orchids, plus a little fern green grass, hang a few ivy, it will become an elegant landscape, a beautiful legend.

A large flower arrangement area, let you linger, towering gladiolus, crane orchid, tall African sling, warm and beautiful lilies, warm and lingering roses, peaceful and attractive stars, various colors of chrysanthemum, countless flowers, invisible colors, white flowers, the most exciting is a bouquet of carnations, flowers are not so gorgeous, but colorful, known as mother flowers, every young person wants to buy a few, in the festival to their dearest mother.

Alas, it's really incredible! Through the efforts of flower farmers, the flowers that are usually delicate and colorful are placed in this flower market. The thousands of smiling flowers seem to be smiling and whispering in a crisp and thin voice: "It's coming, spring has arrived." "Looking at this sea of flowers, looking at the treasures among the plants that exude fragrance, gently flutter and stretch the leaf buds and petals, I get a kind of beauty to the fullest, and gradually revel in the sea of flowers! I can't help but admire: people choose and arrange such a scene as a prelude to the spring, which is really ingenious.

The designers of the flower market interspersed the flower market with arts and crafts, so that people will not feel visually tired and monotonous. The calligraphy and paintings in the flower market are also down-to-earth, and the prices are not similar to the sky-high prices in bookstores or antique shops. Landscapes, pastorals, flowers, birds, insects and fish are popular, as long as you like, spend three hundred yuan, framed in the living room, showing the warmth and romance of life. If you don't like calligraphy and painting, and you are not in a hurry, smell the Thai mugwort, maybe you will be relaxed, just the incense burning utensils, you can let you feel the exotic Buddhist culture.

On the way back, there was an endless stream of people who returned from buying flowers, including large and small families, couples with babies, lovers holding hands, and leisurely riding shared bicycles, each with a bouquet of flowers, all of them happy. Pink peach, branches full of flower bones, yellow chrysanthemum, delicate petals; The long strips of silver willows with purple stems and silver buds are a bit like the "sleeping beauty" in fairy tales...... Some held the flower tree above their heads, and some held the flower pot on their shoulders, and the flow of people seemed to have turned into a strange flower flow. Children like to be lively by nature, and when they see adults happy, they are happy, and they are close to their parents, the small ones are holding their clothes, and the big ones are jumping up......

Li Xiangqian, holding a pot of kumquat, not only likes its "auspicious" reputation, but also loves the rich fruits it hangs, coupled with the left and right care of his wife, and the care of his daughter before and after, he forgot the heaviness of the potting soil.

A common people can experience the joy of time in this flower market. This is not only because I love flowers, but also because of the lively atmosphere of the flower market.

Leaving the flower market, our two families are about to break up, there are endless words, endless emotions, at the moment of breakup, are revealed, we called a total of two taxis, Mr. Zhang and their family took the car to the east, we took the car to the west, but the hearts of our two families are connected together.
