Zhumadian Network News (Reporter Gong Huajing) On April 24, in the 100-acre peony garden in Sungang Village, Wagang Town, Queshan County, clusters of peony flowers were tender and elegant, and tens of thousands of red, pink and white peony flowers showed a scene of competing for beauty and bees and butterflies.
"This year, the peony is growing well, the market price is also good, all the peonies in the field have signed contracts with the buyers, and they can be sold for more than 1 million yuan when they take root in the autumn," Sun Junqiang, a large Chinese herbal medicine planter in Sungang Village, told reporters.
Peony is also known as "Dianchun flower", which is naturally beautiful, graceful and luxurious, and can be compared with the peony of the national color and fragrance. Peony not only has high ornamental value, but also has important medicinal value.
Peony root contains paeoniflorin and benzoic acid, and uses vary depending on the variety. White peony in traditional Chinese medicine mainly refers to the root of peony, which is a drug with antispasmodic, analgesic and menstrual effects.
At present, the planting of Chinese medicinal materials has become a new engine for Wagang to promote rural revitalization and a "golden pimple" for the masses to get rich, with a planting area of 45,000 mu and an output value of 400 million yuan.
