It's good to come in spring, wave after wave of flowers.
I've seen plums, plums, and cherries, and I've come to peach blossoms again. Then there is another kind of flower, which is like a cherry blossom and not a cherry blossom and a plum flower, and it is a peach.
Today, I will talk to you about "Bi Tao".
01
Bi peach, just looking at the words, is it easy to think of "green peach blossom"?
In "The Legend of Zhen Huan", in the courtyard of the Guojun Palace, many blue plum blossoms are planted. When the baby elephant incident happened, Huanbi said that she hoped to be lucky enough to see him, so that everyone thought that King Guojun had affection for him, so he was able to let the emperor give him marriage.
There are blue plum blossoms, but the blue peach blossoms are really not visible.
The "bi" of peach does not refer to the color of peach blossoms. But the meaning is that this peach blossom comes from the blue sky (heaven).
Qin Guan, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, wrote a poem "Poppy Beauty" by Bi Tao, which begins with this sentence:
The peach is planted in the sky and dew, not the number of flowers.
I probably think that this peach blossom is too beautiful, it is a fairy in the sky, not an ordinary flower.
Peach is a variant and cultivated variety of the deciduous plant peach of the family Rosaceae, which can be said to be a general term for semi-double-petaled and double-petaled varieties of ornamental peach blossoms.
02
There are peach trees, some are mainly peaches, and some are mainly ornamental. The fruit is predominant, the fruit is large, the flowers are all pink, single-petaled, 5-petaled.
The ornamental fruit is not big, but the flowers are beautiful, such as the peach.
Peach has double petals and semi-double petals. There are many colors of the flowers, such as pink, red, and white.
The leaves of the peach include both red and green leaves.
Leaves and flowers, with different combinations, will be combined into many varieties. For example, green leaf safflower, green leaf pink flower, red leaf red flower, red leaf pink flower, green leaf white flower......
To share with you, I saw some peaches:
1) Green leaves and green peaches
Below is the green peach at the entrance of Wuyingshan Park, with green leaves and pink flowers, and petals overlapping. Isn't it a bit like plum blossoms and cherry blossoms?
The following is a green-leaved red flower, taken in the community.
2) Red leaves and green peaches
The peach photographed below in the small park next to the small shadowless pond has this deep red or purple leaves, and the color of the flowers is also heavier.
There are such single-petaled ones and double-petaled ones, and they bloom heartily against the background of the blue sky.
3) Chrysanthemum peach
The peach blossom below, with very thin petals, looks like a chrysanthemum, isn't it very unique? The color of the flowers, there are pink and red.
The flowers I saw on Xigonggonghe Road were red and the leaves were green. In fact, it can be regarded as a kind of peach.
4) White blue peach
The white peach was photographed many years ago in Thousand Buddha Mountain, and I was particularly surprised to see the white peach blossom for the first time. Circled the tree several times.
White peach blossoms, which look more elegant.
5) Sprinkle with golden peaches?
The following peach is interesting, on the same peach branch, there are white flowers, and pink flowers. It's like some peach blossoms have deserted and worn the wrong clothes.
It's like thinking about his mother's child, putting on his mother's clothes and making fun of his little sisters.
There is a variety of sprinkling golden peaches, on the same plant, there are two flower colors, sometimes a flower, half white and half red, I don't know if this counts as "sprinkling golden peaches"?
Inbred plants, hybridized in pairs, absorb a little of each other's characteristics, and accidentally produce a new variety, the horticulturist's hand, more delicate than the magician.
Well, the above is a little bit of a little cognition about Bi Tao. If you want me to say, "the peach is dying, scorching its flower" is used to describe the peach, and it is well deserved.
What other different "peaches" have you seen, welcome to leave a message to share.
