Three famous lotus in China: Jianlian [Sanming Jianning in Fujian], Xuanlian in Wuyi [Jinhua Wuyi in Zhejiang Province], Xianglian [Yuetang District in Xiangtan, Hunan]

1. Jianlian

Jianning lotus seed, referred to as "Jianlian", is produced in Jianning, Jianyang, Pucheng, Chongan and other counties in the northern mountains of Fujian. These counties are under the jurisdiction of Jianning Prefecture in history, so the lotus seeds produced are collectively referred to as "Jianlian". Liantang in Jianning generally chooses plots with thick soil layer, soil fertilizer, good water quality and avoiding the inward sun. There are springs in the pond, and the water is warm in winter and cool in summer, creating excellent conditions for the growth of lotus seeds.

It was planted in the Xianqing period of the Tang Dynasty (656-660). It is famous for its large round grains, thick meat, crispy meat, rich nutrition and high medicinal value. Six years of Qing Jiaqing (1802) was listed as a tribute to the court.

3. Xiangtan Xianglian

Xiangtan Xianglian is a specialty of Xiangtan City, Hunan Province. "Xianglian", also known as "cun Sanlian", has been planted for two or three thousand years. Xianglian grain is big and full, white and round, delicate texture, fresh and sweet, with the function of lowering blood pressure, invigorating the spleen and stomach, calming the mind and clearing the heart. In history, it is known as "Gonglian" and "the first lotus seed in China".
