It looks like agate for 15 years before it turns out that the price is 10 times that of bayberry. Farmers don't want to eat it.

The most popular fruit in early summer must be red bayberry. It matured in early June and captured a large number of fans with its delicate shape and sweet and sour taste. Every red bayberry mature season, especially envy people in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, can be the first to eat fresh bayberry picked from the tree, but also can eat the rare white bayberry on the market. White bayberry is a relatively rare variety of bayberry, it looks like agate, white powder, compared with red bayberry like a "clear flow", very eye-catching.

Generally speaking, the economic life of bayberry is relatively long, it can hang fruit after planting for 4 years, and enter the high yield period after 8 years, the annual output of a tree can reach more than 300 jin. White bayberry is different, only 15 years after planting, the yield is not high, most of the output is less than 100 jin, so it is particularly precious. Another reason is that white bayberry tastes sour and its sweetness is not as sweet as the high-quality red bayberry on the market, so many growers will not plant white bayberry, only in a few places in Zhejiang, so white bayberry is rarely seen on the market.

White bayberry, as a rare variety, is mainly sold to hotels in major cities, high-end fruit stores, and sold through the Internet, so it is more expensive. White bayberry, which weighs about 10 grams per fruit, can be sold for 198-398 yuan per box (about 50 pieces) after being packed in an exquisite gift box, which is about 10 times more expensive than red bayberry. But scarcity is precious, and many people are willing to pay for this agate-like white bayberry. Growers are generally reluctant to eat such expensive bayberry.

Red bayberry in June is not only delicious, but also has high nutritional value. According to Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica, "Waxberry can quench thirst, harmonize the five internal organs, cleanse the intestines and stomach, and eliminate annoyance and evil qi." Red bayberry can best quench thirst and relieve summer heat. Although red bayberry is sour, it is a solid alkaline food, so it is very friendly to the spleen and stomach. People with minor stomach problems might as well eat some red bayberry. In addition to fresh food, red bayberry is also very suitable for soaking wine, red bayberry can soothe the greasy, white bayberry can nourish the stomach.
