Peony, known as the king of flowers, has been the object of praise by literati and writers since ancient times. In April, Shijiazhuang Botanical Garden invites you to a flower meeting and meet the national peony!
Walking into the peony garden, I saw a sea of peony flowers, red like fire, pink like xia, all kinds of peonies blooming one after another, like a vivid picture scroll in front of you.
The breeze blows and the petals gently sway, exuding a refreshing fragrance that makes people intoxicated and unforgettable. Due to the recent rapid rise in temperature, the temperature is higher, and the peony flowers bloom slightly earlier than in previous years, and this week is in full bloom.
The peony exhibition area of the botanical garden is located in the north of the park, on the verge of the peony garden on the shore of Bocheng Lake, a total of more than 80 precious varieties of peonies such as "Muramatsu cherry", "Fuzhao pink orchid", "Lianhe", "Kao", "coral platform", "Guifei Jiacui" and "moon palace candlelight" are planted, including pink, red, yellow, green, white, purple, compound color and other 7 major color systems, nearly 20,000 plants, with a total planting area of 30,000 square meters.
In addition to the regular flower patterns of peonies that we can often see, there are also purse peonies that can bloom in the shape of "love you". Although the peony is called peony, in fact it is indeed a herbaceous plant root flower, its flower shape is peculiar, the flower color is delicate, and it has a cultivation history of more than 1,000 years in the mainland. The long inflorescences, neatly decorated with large and small "pink hearts", are beautiful and elegant, and very cute. At present, the peony is also in bloom.
Peony Chengchun pet, He Zeng envy peony. On the west side of the peony garden, the delicate peony has also budded and is ready to be released. In order to further enrich the peony varieties and expand the planting scale, the botanical garden will introduce a total of 1,900 domestic peony varieties in the northwest of the peony peony garden in the autumn of 2023. There are 1,300 peonies in 29 foreign peonies such as Carnival, bringing the total number of peonies to 79 varieties and a total of more than 6,300 plants.
The horticulturists planted the newly introduced domestic and foreign varieties of peony with different planting patterns, and divided them with green tiles, so that tourists can distinguish the varieties more intuitively and play a good role in popularizing science.
In late spring, the national color is in full bloom, just waiting for you to come, and the peony flowering period will last until late April. The peony blooms a little later than the peony, and is expected to bloom in late April and last until early May.
