The vanilla of kings

Confucius, the forerunner of Chinese culture, once said: "Zhilan is born in a secluded valley, not because there is no one but not fragrant. A gentleman practices morality and does not change his festival for the sake of poverty." Confucius also said: "to live well with people, such as entering the room of Zhilan, if you do not hear its fragrance for a long time, it will be transformed into it." It is recorded in Qin Cao Li Lan Cao: "Confucius returned to Lu in self-defense, and he saw Xianglan alone in the hidden valley. He sighed and said," Zhilan should be the king of incense, and now it is alone with the grass. "it is called" the incense of the king. "it is enough to prove the position of Chinese orchids in history and culture.

Orchid is one of the ancient famous flowers in China. When it blossoms in spring, the fragrance is clear and fragrant. A flower is in the room, and the room is full of fragrance. Therefore, in the south of the Yangtze River, orchids are often used as "incense ancestors", "national incense" or "first incense". The ancients had a special affection for Chinese Lanhui, calling orchids "the fragrance of kings", "mass leaders and groups of fragrances", "the first fragrance in the world" and so on.

I don't know if the incense is in the room for a long time, but a butterfly comes when I push the window. The fragrance of flowers described by the great poet is very realistic. Orchids are fragrant and fragrant. Any description looks pale. The French study perfume and the whole world study fragrance, none of which is orchid perfume and essence. Because orchids have tens of thousands of genes, they cannot be developed so far.

Among the Chinese orchids, the fragrance of Huilan is the best, the cold orchid of Jianlan is the second, and the ink orchid is the worst.
