What famous products are appreciated in plum blossom bonsai modeling?

The ancients all loved plum, and there was an endless stream of poems about plum from ancient times to the present. Because it is one of the three friends, it is one of the three heroes of spring flowers, and it is a gentleman among the four gentlemen. Plum grows almost everywhere in our country, so there are many places to appreciate plum. However, many people do not understand it, Aimei should also do Xi Mei, this is what we should do to appreciate and respect Mei.

Although Mei is very common, there may still be many people who have never seen Mei, and the understanding of Mei only exists in the poems of the past. Then I will introduce Mei's style first. We have always had high expectations of it, hoping that it is vigorous, powerful and elegant, and that it is changeable and natural. Grafting to the bonsai, we have to prune it to a certain extent in order to achieve the purpose of viewing.

We usually have three ways of making and pruning. They are curved dry type, oblique dry type and wood-attached type. This is not the same, we can modify slightly according to the local cultural heritage to achieve the most in line with the style. But the pruning should not be excessive and lose the id. As a kind of plastic art for people to appreciate, it should be taken from nature.

There are many famous plum blossoms, and the famous ones in different periods are also slightly different. Generally speaking, its famous products are divided into these categories: straight plum, Zhaoshui plum, apricot plum and long you plum and so on. Straight-foot plum is the most primitive one, and the branches grow upward naturally. The hybrid of apricot plum, apricot and plum has a high survival rate and is more convenient for cultivation.

Zhaoshuimei is more expensive than others, branches and straight plums, on the contrary, are naturally drooping, even after the flowers bloom, the crown looks like an umbrella, the overall view is very lovable. Longyou Mei is a kind of Quzhimei, which is more valuable than Mei Mei.

After introducing Mei's famous products, I think you would like to know the cultural allusions behind the famous products. Plum blossom is known as the first national flower in China. There was a history of picking plum blossoms more than three thousand years ago, but at that time plums were used for food. What really made Mei famous for her flowers was postponed to the Han Dynasty more than a thousand years ago. A series of art plums such as singing Mei Songmei have sprung up gradually since the Sui and Tang dynasties.

The Song Dynasty is the peak in the history of Yimei. Lu you, a famous poet, wrote more than one hundred poems about chanting plums in his life. Some poets even became a hermit because they loved Mei and took Mei as his wife. He was infatuated with Mei. In the Yuan Dynasty, the literati paid more attention to the beauty of plum painting and shape. The taste of plum depends on the overall charm, and it is also an important standard to identify whether changed plum is a famous product.

It is already a hundred feet of ice on the cliff, and there are still some flowers. Plum blossom is not only a flower, the posture of standing proudly in the world is the epitome of the spirit of the Chinese nation.
