Appreciation of Jinsha tree chrysanthemum, a famous product of lotus petal

Jinsha tree chrysanthemum-Yang Kai "Qianshou Guanyin", also known as "Jinsha tree chrysanthemum", belongs to the original species name series of Lianpailan orchid in Huili, Sichuan. Around the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2004, Zhang Ping, a member of the Huili Orchid Association and a farmer in Liuhua Township, who had been collecting wild orchids for 16 years, collected a batch of medium-wide leaves from the mountains along the Jinsha River and began to bud one after another at the end of the year. An orchid enthusiast in the neighboring county chose two seedlings with buds and one strong grass from this batch of downhill grass for 110 yuan. During the Spring Festival in 2005, the Huili Orchid Association held a Spring Festival Orchid Exhibition. The orchid enthusiast in Huidong County brought the photo taken after the downhill grass blossomed to the Huili Orchid Exhibition for appreciation by friends in the orchid circle. It was the wonderful dance performance of the Spring Festival Gala "Qianshou Guanyin", so the flower was named "Qianshou Guanyin", also known as "Jinsha Tree Chrysanthemum".

After many negotiations, 25 members such as Meng Xianrong, he Zhizhong, Li Shian and Zhang Ping of the Hui Li Orchid Association and that member of the East Orchid Association raised 260000 yuan to raise it together. Then divide one old grass and send two buds. The other two strong grasses produced two new buds and two flowers each in the spring of 2006. Huili County Orchid Association presented the 10th Orchid Expo in Dali Prefecture, Yunnan Province (Heqing) in February 2006, and the famous product "Qianshou Guanyin" (also known as "Golden Sand Tree Chrysanthemum") won the gold medal. This flower is tall and out of the shelf. when the bell is small, the whole scape is flesh pink, and the flower bud grows into the sky like a round plum blossom bone. the flowers are in full bloom with plum, dish, strange and color, beautiful and graceful, just like the mythical "thousand-hand Guanyin". During the Lanbo Expo, the three strong grass with flowers were purchased and cultivated by Li Guanghong and Yang Kai from Dali, Yunnan, at a price of 800000 yuan per plant, with a total price of 2.4 million yuan. Another old grass was also acquired and cultivated by Su Zemin, a friend of he Qinglan, Dali, and Asong, a mother, for 5 million yuan.

"Qianshou Guanyin", also known as "Jinsha Tree Chrysanthemum", deserves the shocking background and art appreciation of the orchid world:

One is that the novelty flowers in lotus petal orchid have not appeared again since 2003.

The other is that Dali in Yunnan is known as the hometown of the famous lotus orchid, and the five golden flowers in the lotus petal orchid: Cangshan strange butterfly, Jianyang butterfly, strange flower element, Yunnan plum and gold coast have enjoyed the reputation of orchid for more than ten years. "Qianshou Guanyin", also known as "Golden Sand Tree Chrysanthemum", surprised the Yunnan Dali Lanbo Expo, injecting vitality into the lotus petal orchid, the Chinese orchid and the Chinese orchid world.

The third is to understand and appreciate it through the comparative analysis of the famous products of lotus petal orchid. Taking "Jade Rabbit Color Butterfly", "Lijiang Star Butterfly", "Xinhai Butterfly" and "Danxin Butterfly" as the list, all of them are characterized by the variation of the petals, that is, the lip petals holding the petals, among which the labial petals of "Danxin Butterfly" are used as double lip flaps. there is an occasional increase in the number of lip-pulling valves. Taking the "Jianyang butterfly" and "Huili lotus butterfly" in the side-lobe butterfly as the column, the half-labial lobe of the epicalyx is also characterized by its variation, and there is no increase in the number of half-labial sepals. Take the "Cangshan strange butterfly" which occasionally appears at the same time between the core butterfly and the side-lobe butterfly as an example, there is the simultaneous appearance of lip flap and side-lobe half-lip flap and the occasional increase of flap. Take the "Gold Coast", the flower of the core butterfly, as an example, it is mainly the strange change and increase in pairs of lip flaps, showing unprecedented brilliance for the orchid world. Taking "Dianmei", "Shumei" and "Danxin Xuemei" in plum petals as an example, the hard-held petals of petals are male into their variation characteristics, but there is no increase in the number of petals, even including the traditional famous "Song Mei" of Chunlan and the best "jade begonia" of Chunjian, and there is no increase in the number of male variants of petals. Taking "Qi Hua Su", "Jian Hu Qi" and "Jade Chrysanthemum" as examples, both petals and lips become sepals as their variation characteristics, but there is no obvious increase in the number of petals, among which the "Qi Hua Su" can be regarded as the increase of abrupt changes.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is the emergence of the king of Chinese lotus orchids and the dream of the Chinese orchid world. Each flower is basically divided into six levels: one layer is three to four narrow sepals; the second layer is the same, the sepals are widened; the third layers are the same, the sepals are widened more; the four layers are the same, and the red double stripes appear in the middle of the petal widening, which has the variation characteristics of butterfly or semi-sphenoid petal, and there is an increase in the number of butterfly or semi-sphenoid petals. The five layers are the most peculiar and gorgeous, and the petals show the variation characteristics of four to six petals, that is, each petal has an obvious yellowish mass of pollen, forming a circle, clasping the nose of the sixth layer, thus presenting the famous product of Chinese orchid. Lotus petal orchid "Qianshou Guanyin", also known as "Golden Sand Tree Chrysanthemum", is compared with other famous orchids. It not only has the important variation characteristics of butterfly or semi-butterfly petals and the increase of petals, but also has the characteristics of petal hard or semi-hard male turning into important variation and the increase of petals, so it is unique among the famous Chinese orchids so far.

What is also particularly strange is that the debut of Huili Lotus Orchid's finest "Qianshou Guanyin", also known as "Jinsha Tree Chrysanthemum", is also competing on the same stage with Yunnan Dali's multi-lipped butterfly "Gold Coast". If the two kinds of orchids are displayed together, it is amazing that they are skillfully married to male and female. Therefore, "Qianshou Guanyin" is more magical and everlasting charm and intriguing artistic conception.
