Understanding the treasures of Chunlan-- ten thousand words

Ten thousand words, also known as Yuanhu first plum, is said to have been found in Nanhu, Jiaxing County, Zhejiang Province during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. It was first cultivated in Hangzhou Wanjia Garden. Due to the bright green color, a sense of transparency, fine waxy quality, flowers dignified and elegant, giving people a relaxed and pleasant sense of sight. The stock of ten thousand words is very small and extremely rare, and it is indeed an authentic national orchid. Because many books publish Ruimei as ten thousand words, some large orchid exhibitions display Ruimei as ten thousand words, and some orchid merchants even sell them as ten thousand words, which hurts many orchid friends. Everyone has doubts about the existence of ten thousand words, and it is even more difficult to understand ten thousand words. In fact, ten thousand words are relatively easy to distinguish.

1. Root. The root of ten thousand words is obviously slender than other spring orchids.

2. Leaves: the leaves with ten thousand characters are wider and softer than those of Song Mei. the veins are flat, and there are dragons on the edge of the leaves. The leaves are fleshy and shiny, but they are easy to get black spots. The leaves that are more than two years old are obvious. The leaf tail 4-5cm is warped on the left and right side, which is very chic and unrestrained. The central leaf is ribbon-shaped, and the widest part is generally no more than 0.5cm, while Ruimei is erect and does not have the above characteristics.

3. Flowers: the shell is fresh purplish red when unearthed, the short shell layer is more and more gorgeous, the meat coating is green and has a fleshy texture, while Ruimei is purplish red without obvious green color. The zigzag flower is tall, about 20cm, the top section is white-green, the section is red, the following sections are white and light red with green background, and the plum blossom is all purple-red. The ten thousand-character stick is a standard silkworm moth holding the nose tightly, the upper side is flushed, the Ruyi tongue is straight out of the roll, and there are bright red spots on the back of the tongue, the distribution is very regular, while Ruimei is a non-standard silkworm moth holding, more reluctantly. Ten thousand petals tight garden, thin roots into a flat edge, the whole appears compact, very charm, and Ruimei appears to be a little loose, lack of spirit.

These are some of the experiences I have gained from my cultivation of ten thousand words. Please criticize and correct the inadequacies.
