In the spring day at the Suzhou Creek Fitness Trail, Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms are blooming by the river, turning the riverside trail into a "flower road". At Tianhui HQ (formerly Volley SOHO), a large area of begonia blooms into a pink "sea of flowers", which reflects the streamlined buildings behind it. Even if it rains, the translucent petals are stained with crystal clear water droplets, which adds a bit of fairy air. These two places for viewing flowers have attracted many passers-by to stop and take photos, and follow "Ningning" to enjoy the → of flowers
Hanajiro: Somei Yoshino Sakura by the river
As a representative of cherry blossoms, Somei Yoshino is a hybrid breed of Oshima Sakura and Edo, and when it blooms, it has pink buds, five white petals when blooming, and a spectacular scene of "cherry blossom blowing snow" when it withers. The flowers come first and then the leaves, and the flowering period is in mid-March.
In the Rinku Park, the Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms next to the Suzhou Creek fitness trail are especially worth seeing. Suzhou Creek flows beside it, and the greenery of the fitness trail becomes more and more vibrant in spring, so it is not beautiful to take a photo with the sea of flowers in the spring rain in the south of the river.
Sea of flowers: Weeping begonia of Tianhui HQ
Begonia are known as "flower concubine", "fairy in flowers" and "national beauty", "only afraid that the flower will sleep in the middle of the night, so burn high candles to illuminate red", when you see them at the scene, you may also emit similar feelings. Begonia has four products, Shanghai planted more weeping begonia, deciduous small trees, flowers pink, drooping, flowers and leaves bloom together, flowering period from March to April.
The beauty of begonia lies in its delicate and full, looking at it like pink clouds from afar, like a dream. Tianhui HQ planted several begonia forests, among which the one with the highest appearance should be the one next to Admiralty Road. Many citizens and friends took pictures of people under the flowers and trees, and the spring breeze was intoxicated.
What are the beauty of cherry blossoms and begonias? Late March is their best stage, with beautiful white flowers and delicate pink flowers, regardless of victory or defeat.
It is worth mentioning that Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms are a kind of middle cherry blossom according to the flowering period, and there are also Oshima cherry blossoms that are also middle cherry blossoms. Oshima cherry blossoms are representative of wild cherry blossoms, deciduous trees that can reach a height of up to 15 meters. The flowers are white, single-petaled, and bloom slightly earlier than Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms, and in mid-March, the flowers and leaves bloom together.
Compared with Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms, Oshima cherry blossoms have a whiter color, which is lovesome for their white purity, and many people mistake it for pear blossoms. A large area of Oshima cherry blossoms is planted near the PetroChina Building in the airport park, which is also worth taking photos.
Grab the tail of March, stroll through the airport park with "garden-style, high-tech, headquarters-type" as the development positioning, and enjoy the "limited" flower sea!
