Chapter 420 Cuckoo

Zhang Taiping planed the soil, and Ye Ling sowed the seeds according to the distance and method Zhang Taiping said. While planting, Zhang Taiping introduced the names of each seed to Ye Ling.

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

Zhang Taiping glanced back and said, "This is Rhododendron."

"What do azaleas look like?" Ye Ling may have heard of azaleas but never seen them.

The simple question baffled Zhang Taiping, he had seen Rhododendrons and was familiar with them, but he didn’t know how to describe its appearance clearly: “Well, Master really can’t explain it clearly. You can find pictures online.”

Rhododendron is one of the ten famous flowers in China.Among all ornamental flowers and trees, it can be said to be beautiful in both flowers and leaves, suitable for both ground and potted plants, and has the widest range of uses.

Bai Juyi praised and said: "I hold two branches in my hand, and it doesn't seem to exist in the world when I look closely. Among the flowers, this thing is a Xishi, and the whip, peony and peony are all mothers."In the natural distribution of rhododendrons in the world, there are many types and huge quantities, none of which can match the rhododendrons in China. China is the treasure house of rhododendron resources in the world!It is also the world distribution center of Rhododendron.Today Jiangxi, Anhui, and Guizhou use Rhododendron as the provincial flower, and as many as seven or eight cities have designated it as the city flower.

There are many types of rhododendrons, and the species commonly cultivated in China include: hair cuckoo, summer cuckoo, Western cuckoo, eastern cuckoo, spring cuckoo, sheep's azalea, azalea, horse silver flower, cloud silver rhododendron and so on.

However, the growth habits of rhododendrons vary greatly. Most species are produced in high-altitude areas, prefer cool and humid climates, and hate hot and dry climates.Some species and horticultural varieties have strong adaptability and are resistant to drought, but they do not grow well on heavy or poorly permeable soil.

Rhododendrons have certain requirements for light, but they are not resistant to sunlight. In summer and autumn, there should be deciduous trees or shade sheds to block the scorching sun, and the ground should be sprayed with water frequently.The rhododendron and peach trees planted on Taohua Mountain can shield the rhododendron from the strong sunlight.As for the problem of 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, with spring shoots as the main ones.It is most suitable for growing at the transition of spring and summer, and there is a short dormant period in winter. Afterwards, as the temperature rises, the flower buds gradually expand. Generally, it blooms in March to May in open field cultivation, and blooms as late as July to August in high altitude areas.Cultivated in greenhouses in the north. It can bloom from January to February.

Moreover, it is resistant to pruning, and the hidden buds are very easy to germinate after being stimulated. This can be used to control the shape of the tree and rejuvenate the tree. It can be regarded as a very good landscape flower, suitable for both indoors and outdoors.

When buying the seeds, the boss told Zhang Taiping that it was azalea, a very common but very good variety of Rhododendron, named for its red color when it blooms.As for whether it is true or not, it will not be known until it has been planted and bloomed.

Azalea has always been known as the "King of Woody Flowers". Literati from all over the world have written many beautiful poems in praise of Azalea, such as Yang Wanli's poem "Why do you need a famous garden to watch the spring breeze, and the mountain flowers all the way are worthy of you. Every day Jinjiang presents Brocade, the clear stream reflects Azalea." It praised the simple and tenacious vitality of Azalea.

I planted one rhododendron in each of the four corners around the wooden house, and it will grow into a big pearl and bloom every year.

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

"Peony flowers."

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

Peony is a perennial flowering plant with slow growth and small plant type. It is a unique woody and precious flower in my country. It is known as "national beauty and heavenly fragrance" and "king of flowers". It has long been regarded as a symbol of wealth, auspiciousness and prosperity. symbol.

Zhang Taiping knew more about peonies than Dujuan, and when he got interested in talking, he stopped his hands and asked, "Do you know that the peonies there are the most famous?"

Ye Ling's knowledge of peonies is limited to knowing its name and seeing the flowers a few times. Of course, he doesn't know where the peonies are the most famous, and he doesn't know what kinds of peonies there are. He shook his head and said, "I don't know." Then he looked at Zhang Taiping with big eyes and waited for his explanation.

Zhang Taiping cleared his throat and said, "Luoyang peonies and Heze peonies are the most famous. And there are many related legends about Luoyang peonies." Before he could continue, Zhang Xiaoqing came up.

"Are there any legends? I'll come to hear them too." Zhang Xiaoqing asked.

Zhang Taiping didn't have the reporter to say these things, but asked with a smile: "Why did you run up, and don't take pictures below?"

"Oh, look at my memory." Zhang Xiaoqing patted his forehead and said, "The bride and groom below want to take two photos on a horse, and the photos are almost finished below, and I heard from them that there is a fish in the pond. Only you, Brother Zhang, can summon a big tortoise, so if you have nothing to do down there, just send a message up for them."

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

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

"Alright." Zhang Taiping continued to talk.

Rooted in the land of Heluo, Luoyang peonies began in the Sui Dynasty, flourished in the Tang Dynasty, and became the best in the world in the Song Dynasty.

Legend has it that on the first day of the twelfth lunar month in the second year of Tianshou, it was snowing heavily in Chang'an, Xijing. Wu Zetian drank wine and wrote poems, and wrote an imperial edict with a drunken pen: "In the Ming Dynasty, you will visit Shangyuan and announce the spring as soon as possible. The flowers will bloom overnight, and don't wait for the dawn wind to blow." Hundreds of flowers are frightened by this fate, and they bloom all night, but the solitary peony does not violate the season, and its stamens do not bloom.In a rage, Wu Zetian demoted Mudan from Chang'an to Luoyang, where she was burned at the stake.The peony suffered from this catastrophe, and its body was like charred charcoal; but its roots and branches did not scatter, and it stood upright in the severe cold. When the spring breeze blows in the next year, the flowers will bloom more beautifully, and it is known as the "scorched bone peony".Luoyang peonies became well-known all over the world and were called the "flower" leader. Luoyang people cultivated peonies and watched peonies, and it became popular day by day.Miss Peony surpassed Empress Wu Zetian with her unique grace and luxury. In the traditional Chinese consciousness, she is regarded as the king of flowers and the symbol of proudly striving for the world's number one.

It is also said that Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, once watched peonies with Concubine Yang by the Chenxiang 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 still drunk, and he wrote three poems of "Qingping Diao" while half asleep and half awake: Clouds think about clothes and flowers, and spring breeze blows Revlon.If it wasn't for Qunyu Mountain, I would meet Yaotai under the moon.

A branch of red dew condenses the fragrance, cloud and rain Wushan heartbroken in vain.May I ask who is like the Han Palace, poor Feiyan Yi Xinzhuang.

Famous flowers all over the country love each other, and they look like the king with a smile.Explaining the infinite hatred of the spring breeze, Chen Xiangting leans against Langgan in the north.

The noble concubines of Xuanzong were overjoyed and praised, and immediately asked Li Guinian to compose a song for Liyuan musicians to sing.The beautiful scenery on a good day is enjoyable, but only when the peonies are in bloom.Poets Liu Yuxi and Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty recorded in their poems: "Only the peony is really beautiful, and the capital moves when it blooms", "The flowers bloom and fall for [-] days, and everyone in the city is crazy."

"Then who said, 'If you die under a peony flower, you can be a ghost too'?" Zhang Xiaoqing asked with a smile.

Zhang Taiping thought for a while and replied: "The source of this sentence is Tang Xianzu's "The Peony Pavilion". The story describes that Du Liniang dreamed that a scholar asked her to write a poem with a willow branch in his hand, and was carried by the scholar to the Peony Pavilion. Chengyunyuzhihuan. 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 said with a smile: "Of course there is another theory, which is in the fairy tale. It is said that Lu Dongbin, the real Chunyang, the head of the Eight Immortals, was knocked down from the mortal world for molesting the Peony Fairy. I said it when I fell to the mortal world."

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

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said, "The boss who sold the seeds said it was Jingyu, but we don't know if it's true or not."

There are many colors of peony flowers, including pink, red, white, etc. The pink is crowned with powder, and the white is more famous for Jingyu.So from this point of view, the credibility of the words of the seed seller is very low.But Zhang Taiping doesn't ask for any expensive species, as long as he can decorate the environment around the wooden house so that it doesn't look so monotonous.Zhang Taiping planed the soil, and Ye Ling sowed the seeds according to the distance and method Zhang Taiping said. While sowing Zhang Taiping, he also introduced the names of the seeds to Ye Ling.

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

Zhang Taiping glanced back and said, "This is Rhododendron."

"What do azaleas look like?" Ye Ling may have heard of azaleas but never seen them.
