Last Updated: 2024/11/22, Some novice orchid farmers greeted the photographer. I often see some terms that I don't understand in orchid books, such as Qianlong (Rong) Miao and Hou Longmiao. I just don't know what it means. I asked some great gods for explanation, but I was still very confused. All right.

There are orchid novice hello photo farmers, in orchid books often see some do not understand the terms, such as: front dragon (ridge) seedlings and rear dragon seedlings, is not clear what the meaning is, asked some of the gods explanation, or very dizzy head.

The farmer tells us a story. There was a man named Lao Zhang. He was born in a poor family. He started empty-handed and earned a little property in middle age. At this time, he married and gave birth to a son. He gave most of his family property to his son. His son Zhang Er did not suffer as much as Lao Zhang, so his health was better than Lao Zhang. After a few years, Zhang Er also married and had children. When his grandson Zhang San was born, his family environment was better than before. Zhang San also grew taller and stronger than his father and grandfather.

Things are always moving forward, Zhang San is often seen in our books "former dragon seedling", he is stronger than the previous two generations, looks better. His starting point of life is much higher than that of the previous two generations, and Zhang San's career with these material foundations is also very smooth. Good photo farmer sent a photo before, wild cymbidium seedlings only 4 leaves, and to the third generation seedlings can grow to 8 leaves, is this reason.

After a few years, Lao Zhang ushered in his second spring and met a woman he liked. Despite the opposition of his son and grandson, he resolutely married that woman. But by this time all his property had been controlled by his son and grandson, and he could not earn much money because of his old age. However, Lao Zhang was a man who had endured hardships after all. No difficulty could defeat him. He gave birth to another son under difficult conditions. When this son was born, his family was not optimistic. Even the most basic nutrition could not keep up. The son's name was "Houlong Miao".

Of course, if the management is good, over time, it is not impossible for the illegitimate to surpass the legitimate, and the rear ridge to catch up with the front ridge.

What do you think of this explanation of the front and rear dragon seedlings? I don't know if it will help you to raise orchids in the future. Please correct me if it is inappropriate.
