Do you know dragon boat flowers? Do you know why this flower is called the Flower of Exorcism? It is said that when the dragon boat flower is not in bloom, it is like a micro-shaped thin hairpin piercing the blue sky, and after opening, the four petals are flattened like a cross...
In ancient times, the cross figure represented the spell of warding off evil spirits and exorcising demons and removing diseases and plagues, so every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, the people rowing dragon boats in order to avoid evil spirits and exorcisms, remove diseases and plagues, and seek good fortune, they put the flower together with calamus and wormwood and inserted them on the dragon boat, and over time, the flower was called the dragon boat flower.
