Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival in the mainland, in addition to eating rice dumplings, hanging wormwood, commemorating Qu Yuan, racing dragon boats, there is also an important custom, that is, hanging sachets. It is to pick the fragrant plants of this season, wash and dry, crush, put in a small cloth bag, embroidered with exquisite flowers, birds and cordyceps, and then hung on the body, which means the beautiful prayer of auspicious health and well-being, and has the curative effect of repelling mosquitoes and avoiding insects and clearing the mind.
I couldn't help but think that the jujube flowers that were blooming at this time, if you made a sachet with such flowers, wouldn't they be more fragrant than other vanillas!
The jujube flower, also known as cinnamon willow, northwest osmanthus flower, is an osmanthus flower that floats in the desert, and is named because of its similarity of flower type to Jiangnan osmanthus flower. Its fragrance is mellow, intense, long-lasting and long-lasting. Tiny flowers bloom among the pale green foliage, like sparkling gold scattered among the leaves. Open on the side of the arid, barren hillside road, the quality is simple and elegant, rich and fragrant, refreshing.
Of course, I didn't make it into a sachet, I just picked a small bag and put it in an open bottle, and sure enough, it was fragrant and fragrant all over the room.
It is also another form of tribute to the great Romantic poet Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan's works have a large number of vanilla beauty imagery, and cinnamon willow is also a plant with a strong fragrance, which should also belong to the category of vanilla beauty. It can also symbolize people with moral character and high personality. It grows in the desert area of the northwest, drought-tolerant, barren, saline, wind and sand, cold, cool sun, can still bloom such elegant and charming flowers, is not it a symbol of the simple and industrious, strong and brave working people in the northwest!
