Bauhinia mountain also see redbud flowers, bauhinia tree flowers bloom bauhinia mountain. Thousands of spring colors, zhengzhou city parks, "only take a scoop to drink." Bishagang Park is a begonia, People's Park is a cherry blossom and tulip flower, and Bauhinia Mountain Park is a bauhinia flower.
Bauhinia Mountain Park, Bauhinia Flowers, the garden has "Bauhinia", the flowers have "Bauhinia", is it a coincidence, or is it intentional matching? Is there bauhinia followed by bauhinia mountain, or is there bauhinia mountain first, followed by redbud trees?
When does spring in Bauhinia Mountain Park start to turn purple? And why does the bauhinia flower symbolize brotherly affection? Dahe Newspaper Yu video reporter reveals the secret for you.
【Origin】The name of the park is Bauhinia Mountain The name of the mountain comes from the bauhinia flower
After the spring equinox, Bauhinia Mountain Park is once again colorful, and purple is the most intense. At present, there are more than 7,000 bauhinia planted in the garden, and the variety is 9 species.
Bauhinia Mountain Park, Bauhinia Flower Exhibition, so, is Bauhinia Mountain named after Bauhinia Mountain, or is it specially planted because it is Bauhinia Mountain? This is similar to the problem of "chicken and egg and egg and chicken".
The reporter of Dahe Bao Yu video reporter learned that Zijing Mountain is part of the old city site of the Shang Dynasty, which has a history of 3600 years. However, after thousands of years of wind and sand accumulation and flooding, most of the walls have been buried in the ground.
The "Zheng County Chronicle", which was rebuilt in the fourth year of the Republic of China, records that "Zijing Mountain is the former site of the old city after the Chongsheng Temple outside the North City Gate. The sand has accumulated over time, and the height is not a mountain, so it is deleted in Okafune. ”
It can be seen that the height of Bauhinia Mountain is not high, so it is excluded from the "mountain". At present, the mountain body in the West Park of Bauhinia Mountain Park is the first batch of key cultural relics protection units announced by the State Council in 1961.
If it is sand, it may move with the wind. In order to prevent the yellow sand from moving south, people plant grass and trees on the sand dunes, most of which are bauhinia and tamarind, which can prevent wind and sand fixation, can also beautify the environment, and some can also prepare baskets. So, gradually, this sand dune was called Bauhinia Mountain. This is one of the many theories about the origin of the name Of bauhinia Mountain that is widely adopted.
In the "ZhengXian Chronicle" rebuilt in the fourth year of the Republic of China, among the flowers listed, there are peony, peony, Yingchun, bauhinia, begonia, clove, wood fragrance and so on, and the position of bauhinia is still relatively high, which shows that bauhinia is a native plant of Zhengzhou. Tamarix, on the other hand, is listed in the last place of the flower class, which also supports the above statement.
【Development】After 2009, large-scale planting gradually formed a garden landscape based on bauhinia flowers
It can be seen that Bauhinia Mountain got its name from Bauhinia Mountain. Bauhinia Mountain Park, on the other hand, gets its name from Bauhinia Mountain.
Nowadays, the spring breeze blows, and in Bauhinia Mountain Park, the bauhinia trees are high and low, or continuous, or scattered, or dotted in the garden, or planted on the mountain. Among them, there is also the white bauhinia with white flowers.
According to the understanding, the white bauhinia is a variant of the bauhinia bauhinia that has been carefully cultivated to show a white jade flower color, the number of which is about 150, which is the more eye-catching "supporting role" of the bauhinia flower exhibition.
The above-mentioned person in Bauhinia Mountain Park said that in 1958, Bauhinia Mountain Park was established, carried out large-scale voluntary labor of digging lakes and piling mountains, and experienced the process of first greening and then beautification, and gradually formed a garden landscape based on bauhinia flowers.
In order to enrich the variety on display, the park has introduced rare varieties such as white bauhinia, giant bauhinia, Canadian bauhinia and red leaf Canadian bauhinia. The giant bauhinia in the park is more than 10 meters tall and has a diameter of 35 centimeters, and in the early 60s, it was about 60 years old in the transplant park, making it the largest giant bauhinia in Zhengzhou.
However, Bauhinia began to be planted in large quantities in Bauhinia Mountain Park after 2009. In that year, Bauhinia Mountain Park held the first Bauhinia Flower Exhibition, and then began to introduce a large number of new varieties, eventually reaching the current scale of more than 7,000 plants.
【Culture】 Symbolizes brotherly harmony and prosperity of the family The poet misses his brother with redbud flowers
At present, it is the season when a hundred flowers are in full bloom. Peony is the "true national color", begonia is like a beauty, pear blossom is "spring with rain", apricot blossom is "rain" of "Jiangnan", all contain a lot of historical allusions. Compared with these flowers, redbud flowers are slightly inferior in terms of posture and foliage. So, in terms of history and culture, is this the case?
The Southern Dynasty Wu Jun's "Records of Continuing Qi Harmony" has such a story, "The three brothers of Jing Zhaotian Zhen discussed and shared the wealth." The income is even, but the bauhinia tree in front of the hall is discussed to break three pieces. Tomorrow, if it is cut off, its tree will wither and die, like a fire..."
What is told is the story of the separation of Jingzhao Yin Tian Zhen and his brothers Tian Qing and Tian Guang during the Southern Dynasty. When all the other possessions were divided, the bauhinia tree in the yard was not easy to handle. Therefore, it is planned to be divided into three paragraphs. As a result, early the next morning, the three brothers found that all the branches and leaves of the redbud had withered and all the flowers had withered.
Tian Zhen sighed, "People are not as good as trees", and put their homes together again, and from then on they lived in harmony. And the bauhinia tree, with its leaves alive and purple, seems to be quite humane.
Because of this, bauhinia is often used as a metaphor for family affection, symbolizing brotherly harmony and prosperity. The poet also expresses his longing for his brother by depicting bauhinia flowers.
For example, Du Fu's "Message from The Brother of Deshe" wrote, "The wind blows the bauhinia tree, and the color and spring twilight." Flowers fall and the wind returns to nowhere." The Middle Tang Dynasty poet Wei Yingwu wrote a poem "See bauhinia flowers", "Miscellaneous Ying has accumulated, containing fangs and lonely spring." It is also like the old garden tree, and the people of the old garden are suddenly remembered."
The Tang Dynasty calligrapher Dou Meng wrote in the "Aftermath of the Book Endowment of the Inscription Brother", "Flowing for three thousand miles, crying a million lines." The bauhinia tree in front of the court, when the day is fragrant again", is also the work of missing brothers.
"Bauhinia "Bauhinia ", like the Wagtail", is often used by poets to express their feelings of missing relatives and friends. For example, Wang Wei's "Lingyunchi Sends Congdi", "The Golden Cup slowly drinks the Song turn, and the painting gently moves the Yan Dance back." Sighing that the partridge is near the water, and the different geese come to the pool", he compared himself and his cousin to the partridge.
Bone tenderness, bauhinia purple, partridge bird flying, which taste, everyone understands?
