Big snow lotus petal

Yunnan Daxue, a traditional famous flower, is not only an excellent variety of Chinese orchids, but also a pearl of Yunnan orchids, and an excellent representative variety of lotus orchids. It gathers the length of the lotus petal orchid and shows that the lotus petal orchid has both the fragrance of spring orchid, the show of cymbidium, the charm of ink orchid and the god of cold orchid, and shows the typical magnificent and elegant demeanor of lotus petal orchid. It is a kind of rare orchid plant bestowed by nature; its medium green leaves and upright sword-shaped leaves are soft and firm, and Xiao sprinkles are elegant!

Daxuesu is famous for its wide leaves and white flowers as snow. Alias Da Suxin, Broad Leaf Suxin, is an independent breed. According to the record of Nanzhong Youfang Lu, Da Xue Su is produced in Wuliang Mountain and has a domestic history of more than 600 years. It is a traditional orchid in Yunnan. It is bred in Dali, Heqing, Weishan, Lijiang and Shigu. It won the gold medal in the 12th World Orchid Exhibition held in Tokyo, Japan in 1987. The new seedling with wide leaves stands upright and hangs like a castrated chicken tail. The leaf length is about 40~80cm and the leaf width is about 1~1.5cm. The leaves are 5 to 9, opposite, bright green. Seedling emergence, the color is faint white, the tip has a slight red dot, extremely light. The leaf sheath is white-green and has no miscellaneous spots. The Spring Festival blossoms, so Weishan calls it "New Year's Day Orchid". A scape blossoms 2 to 5. The petals are all vegetarian and there are light shallow water marks in the center of the tongue. Main petal narrow lotus type, accessory flat shoulder or bow shoulder, flowers dignified and harmonious, elegant and elegant. The scape is high above the leaves, and when the flowers are in full bloom, such as the white crane perched in the green field, showing a peaceful atmosphere. Enjoy the leaves, refresh the heart, enjoy the flowers and leaves, refresh and moisten the heart, and clear the mind. Historically, orchids were exported to Yunnan. According to records, Da Xue Su is a unique breed, and nowadays many people divide it into "New Year's Day Lan", that is, Weishan species, Heqing "Hualong species", Stone Drum species, and so on. So many kinds of Da Xue Su are distinguished by leaves. The flowering is exactly the same, without any difference. Why are there so many different "species" with the same flowering leaves? In fact, there is one kind of big snow element, and the posture of the leaves grown in different environments is quite different. The most extreme model of "several" big snow elements is the "New Year's Day orchid" ring-shaped leaf shape, that is, the "Weishan species" and the upright leaf-shaped "stone drum species". The other is the excessive type, in order to understand the difference of "species", we only need to understand the climate difference between Weishan and Shigu and the habits of l orchids. Weishan is located in the south of Dali Prefecture, surrounded by mountains on all sides, the climate is muggy, the ultraviolet is very strong, dry, the daily temperature difference is relatively small, and the winter is short. The traditional orchid uses rotten soil to mix the fibrous root of a shrub, the soil is relatively poor, the water retention is poor, and basically does not apply fertilizer, so the big snow leaves planted are flat and soft, while Shigu is located in the northernmost part of Dali Prefecture, the Jinsha River valley, the river valley climate, the sun temperature is higher during the day. Sudden cold at night, there is a very ideal humidity, a large temperature difference, the orchid mainly uses rotten chestnut leaves, using sheep dung as the base fertilizer, the big snow leaves are V-shaped, with high nutrient accumulation, relatively slow growth, good upright, sufficient fertilizer and water, thick and thick green leaves.

Because the big snow element with good upright and broad and straight leaves is very powerful, it is deeply loved by orchid friends everywhere, and the price is much higher. Many orchid friends admire to buy stone drum, and over time, the "stone drum seed" spreads in this way. but after leaving the original environment, the leaves are not necessarily so straight. In other words, whether the leaves of Da Xue Su stand upright or not is related to the cultivation environment and management, not the difference between varieties. As long as we know that the habits are managed properly, other areas can also grow "stone drum species".

Yunnan Daxue, a traditional famous flower, is not only an excellent variety of Chinese orchids, but also a pearl of Yunnan orchids, and an excellent representative variety of lotus orchids. It gathers the length of the lotus petal orchid and shows that the lotus petal orchid has both the fragrance of spring orchid, the show of cymbidium, the charm of ink orchid and the god of cold orchid, and shows the typical magnificent and elegant demeanor of lotus petal orchid. It is a kind of rare orchid plant bestowed by nature; its medium green leaves and upright sword-shaped leaves are soft and firm, and Xiao sprinkles are elegant! In recent years, it has been popular and introduced to all parts of the country and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, Canada and other countries. It is deeply loved by orchid friends for seven main reasons:

One is because it has a long history of cultivation. Orchid culture has a rich history, and people have a special preference for it, which naturally forms a traditional famous flower.

Second, the appreciation value of its "elegant flowers" is high. As a non-local love orchid named "Mozi" praised in his article "I know Da Xue Su in Yunnan", "the key to appreciate Da Xue Su is to look at its whole and appreciate its charm." Its leaves bend to the edge of the basin, like a green jade belt, forming a beautiful arc, the curve is quite beautiful, natural, free and easy. Its flower branches are tall and out of the shelf, and the white flowers are particularly elegant and plain. From a distance, they look like white gulls flying in the air, and like a flock of white butterflies playing in the green grass. Overall view, elegant, otherworldly, but also have bursts of dark fragrance, you can not help but revel in it!

The third is because it is "vegetarian". In line with the traditional Chinese concept of beauty habits, plain is elegant, gorgeous is beautiful, plain is pure and natural, ice muscle jade bone; plain is simple and unadorned, GE Chao Meilan; plain is noble and elegant, the heart is high and broad.

Fourth, because it is "good flowers know the season". Flowers bloom in the cold winter buds, blooming in New Year's Day Spring Festival auspicious, rich flowers, all the best, happiness and health.

Fifth, its "award-winning performance is amazing and good performance". Almost always in every orchid exhibition, it has excellent performance, the ability to beat Qunfang to win awards; many champions and trophies have established its distinguished status.

Sixth, its "moderate price is conducive to introduction". The transaction price and trading volume of Daxue was once a weather vane for observing Yunnan Orchid City. After many ups and downs, its price has fallen and stabilized, especially in the case of great risk of investing in "sky price orchid" and "high-grade orchid". It is undoubtedly a wise move to invest in Lanzhou City for the first time, and the current medium and low price is more conducive to the introduction and development of local orchid friends.

Seventh, "excellent varieties and strong resistance". There is a wide range of cultivation adaptability, which is suitable for cultivation and development in different regions, whether it is the colder Harbin or Hainan Island in the south. . Who can not love such a good flower?

With regard to the strain of Da Xue Su, according to my experience and understanding of growing Da Xue Su for many years, I think it is the most accurate and authoritative only two strains, namely, Weishan New Year's Day Orchid and the real Yunnan Da Xue Su. At present, no new wild species have been found, even if the tree is similar to its leaf shape or flower, it can only belong to lotus petal. Lijiang Shigu Da Xue Su and Heqing Da Xue Su are actually the same orchid. The driest discovery of Da Xue Su was Wu Shi in Hualong Village, Heqing during the Tea-Horse Ancient Road period. He was a famous doctor (traditional Chinese medicine) who was donated by mountain people on his way to practice medicine, then spread and spread to Shigu in Lijiang. His descendants are now the old director of our unit. There are many other legends about Da Xue Su, some of which are purely made up, and five or six varieties of Da Xue Su are not recognized. Lijiang Heqing landscape is connected. Publicity is also famous for nature, but it cannot be called "Su" or "Na Su" based on place names (only in Heqing, some people call it "Hualong Su", "pine garden element", "Heqing big snow element", "Heqing big Jasmine", "vegetable garden vegetable", and so on). Of course, when Daxue is cultivated in the same place for a long time, it will change in leaf shape, leaf height, leaf width, and so on. It is natural, even if different people grow different flowers in the same place. The main differences between New Year's Day orchid and Yunnan Daxuesu are that the number of leaves is relatively small, the middle of the leaves is belly-shaped, and the leaves are thinner but whiter flowers.
