It took most of the day, Ye Han picked more than 30 osmanthus and more than a dozen silver cinnamon trees at the nursery base, and Wang Hongnian and the two picked more than 90 qualified laurel trees, and the rest really couldn't be picked out.

Although the nursery base area is vast, they all select osmanthus trees with a unit price of more than 2,500 yuan, good quality and beautiful crown.

In addition to high-end varieties worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, they almost picked out the best osmanthus trees in the base.

The rest either the diameter at breast height is not reached, or the crown width is too low, or the branches and leaves are not lush enough, in short, they cannot meet the requirements of Ye Han.

In fact, in addition to planting large trees, a large part of the nursery base is cultivating saplings.

The cost of seedlings is low, the planting density is high, 3000-4000 trees can be planted per acre, and many customers buy seedlings in bulk and slowly raise them after going back.

It's rare to see someone as generous as Ye Han.

Except for government departments, few people buy so many big trees at once, and they also choose expensive ones, which is not an exaggeration to say that they are wealthy.

There are a total of 137 osmanthus trees, each with different prices, adding up to nearly 400,000, even if it is 80% off, it will cost 320,000.

It is indeed expensive, nearly three times more expensive than the last time it was introduced.

And according to the plan, the number of these osmanthus is still not enough, and I have to go to another nursery base in the afternoon to select.

It is estimated that the introduction of osmanthus alone will cost about 500,000 yuan.

Ye Han looked at the quotation on the contract, and quickly signed it after confirming that it was correct.

Yubai's fingertips held the gel pen, and the pen was completed in one go, and the word 'Ye Han' was clear and beautiful, but it revealed a touch of undoubted tenacity.

Words are like people.

Director Luo took the signed contract and smiled from ear to ear.

He just likes this kind of cheerful person.

is worthy of being a leader, he is very bold at a young age, and he signed a list of more than 300,000 without blinking an eye.

Director Luo smiled and said: "I called the boss just now, and the boss agreed to move the ancient trees, and said that he would help to activate the relationship between the garden department." ”

Repay the favor.

I heard that it is a botanical garden, and it is estimated that there will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future.

Just look at the frequency of this introduction of plants, it is definitely not a bad money.

Ye Han was also a little relieved, and planned to ask Wang Yun to prepare the application materials after he went back.

The preliminary examination of the general government department takes about five days, during which she has to water some plant nutrient solution for this cinnamon tree first, so as not to have problems due to transplanting.

After transplanting, the ancient tree will have to recover for at least a while to reach its original state, and the time is still very short.

Ye Han went to another nursery in the afternoon to select more than 30 osmanthus and more than 100 saplings in good condition, spending 150,000 yuan.

So far, all the osmanthus trees have finally been selected, and a total cost of 470,000 yuan has been spent.

I have to say, it's really expensive.

Funding fell by nearly one-sixth at once.

With such expenses, she suddenly felt that 3.3 million funds did not seem to be much.

Building a botanical garden really requires huge financial support, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Katsura Garden.

Ye Han thought, wait until that

The 260-year-old champion red osmanthus has migrated and gradually rejuvenated; Combined with the ornamentality of osmanthus and the ten-mile fragrance of cinnamon, it should be able to be used as a characteristic flower area.

Coupled with the Epiphany Pavilion, two special scenic spots have been planned, and it is very likely that an S-level plant will be harvested at the same time.

In this way, it is also worth it, after the introduction of this batch of osmanthus flowers, you can enjoy a good garden view every year, and smell the fragrance of osmanthus.

After the trees were selected, Ye Han handed over all the rest to Wang Hongnian and the two of them, they had experience, and she didn't need to bother more.

More than 200 osmanthus trees have been excavated, transported, transplanted, etc., at least a week or more.

This is also the reason why Ye Han went to pick the laurel tree first today, other potted flowers are easy to carry, but this kind of big tree is not easy, and the big truck needs to go back and forth several times a day, and it is busy.

When Ye Han came back in the afternoon, it was almost 5 o'clock.

The summer sun is still strong, just not as harsh.

Today, when I was at the nursery base, although the top was shaded, the temperature did not drop much.

Ye Han stayed inside for most of the day, feeling so hot that it was about to smoke. At this time, the porcelain white face was flushed with light red, and the sweat wet the broken hair on the sideburns, but the facial features were soaked with a kind of clear beauty, which was very different from the usual temperament.

When she came in through the back door, several waves of tourists who hadn't left couldn't help but look at her, and she didn't think about it until Ye Han walked away.

"Damn, I said how can she look so familiar, she is the director of the flower collection!"

"I remembered, too, I've seen it in the tidbits before!"

"She's the principal? So young. ”

"It's so tall, it feels like it's almost half a head taller than me."

"Alas, I can't see it, I knew how good it would be to take a picture with her."

……

With the popularity of the flower collection fermenting on the Internet, Ye Han, the director, has also attracted widespread attention.

Although she rarely shows up and acts in a low-key manner, it does not prevent the public from being interested in her.

A series of news shows that she single-handedly created the current situation of Huajianji, and the age of 22 is even more surprising.

Someone picked up Ye Han's identity, majoring in flowers and botany, but more could not be found, and other news had been blocked by the system.

This makes Ye Han's identity more and more mysterious, some people say that there are powerful investors behind her, and some people say that there is capital injection from the Fu Group...... In short, there are different opinions.

After Ye Han came back, he immediately turned on the air conditioner, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and changed his clothes to feel much refreshed.

After coming out, she immediately contacted Wang Yun to prepare relevant materials and first submit an application for the relocation and protection of ancient trees.

This matter cannot be delayed, and after the approval of the relevant departments, an on-site inspection will be carried out, and time cannot be delayed.

At the same time, after thinking about it in the past few days and rummaging through the relevant materials, Ye Han already has a little idea about the protected plants introduced.

According to the latest revision of the List of National Key Protected Wild Plants in 2021, there are 40 categories and 455 species of first- and second-class protected plants, not to mention third-level national protected plants.

They grow in different environments, with many only growing in a fixed wild environment

Middle.

For example, the national second-class wild protected plant [Rhodiola rosea] grows on the alpine grassland and slope rocks at an altitude of 1700-2600 meters, and cannot be introduced.

And some plants are already very mature in artificial cultivation technology? ()? [()] "Come and see the latest chapter ♂ in its ♂ entirety" (), such as the ginkgo tree.

It is a national first-class protected plant, but now it can be seen everywhere in the market and has become a common landscaping tree species, which can be planted and bought and sold as long as there are relevant procedures.

Unfortunately, most of the ginkgo biloba cultivated in captivity is the product of 'asexual reproduction' (cuttings), which is similar to cloning, and the genetic sequence does not show diversity.

Ancient ginkgo biloba originated 300 million years ago, survived the mass extinction of the dinosaur era, and is a precious living fossil in the plant kingdom. Unfortunately, the mass extinction left only one species of ginkgo.

Ginkgo Biloba - Ginkgo - Ginkgo - Ginkgo - Ginkgo Biloba - Ginkgo Biloba Species, it is the only one from the class to the species, without any close relatives.

The wild ancient ginkgo biloba is very small, and it is dioecious, and it is difficult to reproduce, and many have not produced small seedlings for more than ten years.

Once extinct, it means that this ancient race left over from antiquity will no longer exist.

So, even though ginkgo trees can be found everywhere, they have remained endangered for so many years and have never changed.

At present, it is not only ginkgo biloba that is artificially cultivated, but also the national first-class protected plant [Metasequoia] is also very common in daily life.

In addition, there are many secondary and tertiary protected plants circulating in the market, which have formed a scale, and many people may not realize that they are rare and endangered plants.

However, from a genetic point of view, they continue the genetic sequence of the mother to a certain extent, and they also belong to the national protected plants.

Then there is the question of which plants to introduce.

First, confirm whether the environment of the flower collection is suitable for the growth of these plants.

Second, the introduction of plant species is integrated. You can't plant one tree here and one there, it's too scattered and can't be taken into account.

Third, it is best to form a landscape area with the plants in the garden, and the two-pronged approach is two-pronged.

Ye Han singled out several categories from more than 1,000 species of protected plants.

Pinaceae: Fir (12 species, most of which are second-class protected plants), golden pine, Pinus sylvestris, etc

Podocarpaceae: all genera (more than 100 species, second-class protected plants)

Acer trees: Acer catalpa, Acer miaotai, Acer macrophylla, Acer pentaphylla, etc.

……

The first two can be combined with common cypress trees such as juniper and arborvitae to form a pine and cypress garden, which is placed right next to the flower viewing area.

If paired properly, it's a new landscape area.

r />

The latter can be combined with the common maple trees and maple trees to create a large maple forest, and in November it is a fiery red, and it is also a very beautiful sight.

However, there are fewer types of maple trees, and the 20 species do not meet the system requirements.

The most secure thing is to introduce pine and podocarpaceae plants to create a pine and cypress garden, and the variety and number can also be satisfied.

After Ye Han decided, he listed the specific number and types and sent them to Wang Yun.

*

In the past few days of the approval process, Ye Han went to the flower market to pick other flower types.

The first is epiphany.

Epiphyllum is an epiphytic fleshy shrub of the cactus family and epiphyllum with a relatively large plant type

() Large, 2-6 meters high, native to the tropical deserts from Mexico to Brazil.

The climate there is dry and hot, and it is only cool at night, so the epiphyllum blooms at night to avoid sun exposure and avoid losing a lot of moisture in the desert environment.

Including the flowering time of only 4-5 hours, these are characteristics developed to adapt to the desert environment.

At present, there is only one species in China, but there are many varieties, which are subdivided into large-leaved epiphylla, fine-leaved epiphyllum, peacock epiphyllum, giant wing epiphylla, curly-leaved epiphyllum, serrated epiphyllum, etc., the most common is large-leaved epiphylla. ①

Epiphyllum flowers need to be cultivated for about 3 years before they can bloom, and if they are not raised well, they will not bloom for 4-5 years, or even for life, and they are notoriously difficult to raise.

Ye Han traveled all over the flower market and the surrounding flower cultivation bases, and selected more than 100 pots of epiphyllum, all of which were more than 5 years old, and had flowered last year or this year, and the probability of flowering was higher.

Although epiphyllum is a shrub that is 2-6 meters tall, it is an exotic variety, and most of the ones on the market are around 70cm, and one meter is already considered large.

Among them, there is a pot of epiphyllum about 30 years old, the plant height reaches 2 meters, and it is hung high on a shelf, and the dense branches hang down along the shelf, almost half of the wall.

Ye Han also saw such a big epiphany for the first time, and he was moved at a glance: "What is the price of this plant?" ”

"The price of 12,000 is not a bargain, it is rare to raise such a big epiphany, and my family has it in the whole market. The flowering is called a beautiful one, and it bloomed more than 100 last year, and I'll show you the picture. ”

The boss saw that she was interested and immediately showed her the photo.

It was really shocking, more than 100 white as snow epiphany bloomed on the falling branches, each of which was nearly ten centimeters.

The petals bloom very much, the outermost petals are slender and completely open, the more inward the petals become, the fuller the petals, the feeling is like a green jungle dotted with countless beautiful flowers, the entire wall is completely covered, and the reputation of "beauty under the moon" is worthy of the name.

With money in the account, Ye Han was no longer constrained, and immediately decided to buy it.

The wholesale price of a pot of epiphyllum about one meter high and with lush branches is 600 yuan per pot (more than 8 years old), plus some older and rarer varieties, the total cost of this introduction of epiphyllum is about 130,000 yuan.

Again, it's a big expense.

The task of introducing no less than 200 species and 1,000 flowers and plants is far from sufficient in terms of species, and 40% of them have been completed in terms of quantity, which is still far from the whole.

Next, Ye Han selected a lot of flowers in the flower cultivation base, and planned to match them at the bottom of evergreen trees or planting them in large areas, so as to improve the garden landscape.

This time, she didn't have to carefully choose the year, flower type, etc., and gave priority to choosing different kinds of flowers, such as thousand day reds, poppies, dahlias, daisies, and all kinds of chrysanthemums......

The flowers here are wholesale prices, a few yuan, more than ten yuan a plant is very common, of course, some kinds of prices are higher, the overall calculation is not more than 30,000 yuan.

The task of introducing flowers is basically completed, and the number has exceeded by a lot.

Thousands of pots of flowers also had to be pulled one by one, and Ye Han arranged for people to put them in the chrysanthemum hall first and did shade treatment.

When the exhibition greenhouse is built, the epiphyllum flowers are transplanted, and the other flowers are transplanted into the woods and lawns by gardeners.

forest

Business Bureau.

Director Peng is reviewing the applications submitted below for the introduction of nationally protected plants.

In fact, most of them are familiar faces, such as the large-scale forestry base, national park, artificial cultivation center, and municipal botanical garden in W City...... Approvals are fast.

It's the same process every time, just a cursory one.

Suddenly, there was an unfamiliar name mixed in.

"Flower Set Botanical Garden?" Director Peng swept his gaze, this is the newly opened private botanical garden, right?

He has an impression.

It's not a fire, it's not a fire, that thing is useless in the eyes of the Forestry Bureau, and even specifically excludes some Internet celebrity attractions from trampling on the ecological environment, and has been carrying out rectification.

What impressed him the most was that this botanical garden had a royal lotus with a leaf diameter of 3.35 meters, which not only broke the domestic record of 2.78 meters, but also broke the foreign record of 3.2 meters.

Just a few days ago, the provincial forestry department called the director.

He went to report to work that day, and he happened to be there, and he also heard some of it.

It is said that the botanical gardens and research institutes of affiliated cities applied for the introduction of the king lotus species in the flower collection, on the one hand, to see if it could be crossed with other king lotus to form a new variety, or to maintain its huge characteristics, and on the other hand, to consider its ornamentality.

The director gave him this task.

Director Peng was about to go to Huajian with Dr. Wang from the Academy of Forestry to investigate, but he didn't expect the other party's application to be sent.

Director Peng: "How long has this botanical garden been open?" Less than two months. ”

Assistant Liu: "Yes, director, it will be exactly two months until the end of the month. ”

"Oh......" Director Peng looked at the materials in front of him, including the arrangement and planning of the introduced plants, and the current environmental conditions, "It looks good." ”

"In this way, you can arrange it, call Deputy Director Shanglian and Dr. Wang, and make an appointment with the director of the Botanical Garden, and arrange it in... Let's go check it out after the park closes the day after tomorrow. ”

Assistant Liu: "Good leader. ”

Assistant Liu: "Leader, the ancient tree management department has also received an application from Huajian to relocate a 260-year-old osmanthus tree, and is preparing to investigate. ”

These government departments are all related, and the migration and emigration of ancient trees are also related to forestry ecology.

Director Peng smiled: "That's right, let's call their experts together and go together to see what the environment is like there." ”

*

Ye Han originally thought that only the relevant departments for the protection of ancient trees came to investigate, but he didn't expect that seven people came at once, and the level was not low.

The group came in a mighty way.

Among them are Director Peng, Deputy Director Lian and Assistant Liu of the Forestry Bureau; Dr. Wang and Dr. Hou from the Institute, and two experts from the Landscaping - Ancient Tree Management Department.

Ye Han and Wang Yun stood at the door with more than a dozen employees of Huajian to greet them, and when they heard Assistant Liu's identity, the employees obviously felt nervous.

Good guys, what is the situation with the leaders of so many government departments coming at once?

Ye Han behaved very calmly and introduced himself generously.

Director Peng and the others couldn't help but look at her, the director is so young?

Can you manage a huge botanical garden?

Open a botanical garden or not

It's a play house.

With this question in mind, the group walked into the botanical garden, and was attracted by the rockery and the blue water lilies that were blooming in the pond at first sight.

At this time, the water lily has just bloomed, the petals are opening outward layer by layer, like a lotus lamp opened layer by layer, the petals gradually change from the dark blue at the top to light blue, and the center of the golden flower is exposed, and the roots are erect, attracting attention in the sunlight.

It may seem like it is just beautiful and beautiful to other tourists, but in the eyes of these professionals, it is simply too well cultivated!

Flower. The diameter is larger than that of ordinary species, the number and layers of petals are more, the blooming amplitude is greater, and even the leaves are greener than others, and they are so thick that the color of the back of the leaf is almost invisible.

Dr. Wang took a closer look, observed it carefully for a long time, and took pictures for later use.

The others also exchanged a look and said in their hearts: Not bad.

Although it is just coming in, through the vegetation and water lilies next to the rockery, you can see that there is a certain strength in the flower set.

But let's take a look a little further.

These are common herbaceous plants and shrubs, which grow well under the right climatic conditions, and other species should also be investigated.

So, the group continued to walk along the wide road.

But they walked very slowly, stopping and stopping, touching their hands from time to time to see the state of the plants, and then nodding their heads incessantly.

Ye Han and Wang Yun accompanied him.

Tall deciduous and deciduous trees block a lot of sunlight and flourish, as well as newly transplanted laurel trees, which have excellent crown shape and lush greenery, without the slightest discomfort after transplanting.

"Lao Lian, look at this crape myrtle, it's blooming so well, I can't take my eyes off it. Oh, the fruiting rate is also high, you see this fruit, full and round. ”

"These camphor trees are too luxuriant, and they are of good shape."

……

Just walked step by step, and finally came to the highlight of the day - the giant giant lotus by the artificial lake!
