New Taipei City Agricultural Bureau: Taiwan Lily flowering has arrived to enjoy flowers more to protect flowers

New Taipei Municipal Bureau of Agriculture: Taiwan lilies have reached their flowering season and need to protect them even more.

Recently, when passing through the northeast corner and the north coast, did you find that white trumpet flowers began to appear on the hillsides of the coastal highway? Because of the continuous fine weather at the end of March and the beginning of April, Taiwan lilies bloomed earlier than in previous years, and the pure white flowers stood out against the green mountain wall, which attracted many tourists to admire the flowers. The New Taipei City Bureau of Agriculture reminded tourists to pay attention to the traffic environment under and around them while enjoying the flowers to ensure the safety of people and flowers.

Taiwan lilies are endemic to Taiwan, also known as Formosa lilies and high sand lilies, which are horizontally distributed all over the island and have strong adaptability. unfortunately, the number in the field is getting smaller and smaller due to man-made picking and damage. for this reason, the Bureau of Agriculture has been actively engaged in the restoration and promotion of lilies since 103, hoping to protect this moving natural scenery and resources. so far, nearly 30,000 lilies have been planted on the north coast and northeast corner.

The New Taipei City Bureau of Agriculture said that in recent years, the focus of the promotion of lilies in Taiwan is the promotion and establishment of local participation and identity. This year, it has strengthened its guidance to the public to collect seeds and raise seedlings, with more emphasis on sustainable cooperation and cooperation. The scope of cooperative restoration has been extended from the north coast to the northeast corner. Taiwan lilies have not only become an important totem for many schools, but also attracted more and more attention from the outside world.

Coco Lee, director of agriculture in New Taipei City, said that at present, when Taiwan lilies are blooming, wild Taiwan lilies can be found on the hillside along the coastal highway from Shimen to Gongliao. People can also stop in Jinshan urban green space, Shimen Linshan nose trail, Ruifang Toujiao trail, Gongliao Longmen Park and other places to visit. However, we also remind you to pay more attention to your feet when watching or photographing Taiwan lilies to avoid damaging the ecology. at the same time, please keep a sense of morality and do not pick and destroy them indiscriminately so as not to be punished.
