Jasmine, also known as Jasmine and Jasmine, is an evergreen woody flower of Araceae. Although its flowers are not surprisingly gorgeous, they are pure and fragrant, and they bloom endlessly from summer to autumn, so the ancients called jasmine the best fragrance in the world.
Jasmine originated in India and was introduced to China from West Asia in the Han Dynasty as early as 1600 years ago. It was originally cultivated as a medicinal and ornamental plant. Jasmine flowers are often strung into flower strings as headdresses, with delicate fragrance and full charm. Su Shi, a poet in the Song Dynasty, wrote a poem, "Jasmine is fragrant, betel nut is drunk in the red tide". Jasmine has been widely planted in the Song Dynasty. According to "On Jasmine in Min Guang" in Song Dynasty, "There are many different flowers in Min Guang, which are obviously fragrant and vigorous, and jasmine is the crown of all flowers. Outsiders or Yunmei say they can hide flowers, especially at dusk. " Later Compendium of Materia Medica and Qunfangpu recorded the medicinal value, cultivation management and propagation methods of Jasmine in detail.
