Peony in Heze

Peony originated in China and is the national flower of China. Known as "national beauty and fragrance" and "king of flowers". Its flowers are large, colorful, beautiful, gorgeous and luxurious. Since ancient times, people in China have regarded peony as a symbol of "peace, happiness and wealth".

Heze peony belongs to the Central Plains peony population, with rich colors and ever-changing patterns. Its main colors are pink, red (including purple), blue, yellow, white, black, green and multicolor. Each color system can be divided into deep, light and thick. According to the morphology of flowers and the degree of male and female evolution, they can be divided into nine types: single petal type, lotus type, chrysanthemum type, rose type, golden ring type, crown type, hydrangea type and terrace type. Peony belongs to Paeoniaceae and deciduous shrub, which has a long history of cultivation in China. Now the planting areas are all over the country.

Peony is a deep-rooted plant with developed root system and strong adaptability. Except for heavy saline-alkali land and low-lying land, soil quality is generally suitable for peony growth, especially loose sandy soil. We should choose a place with high terrain and good drainage when introducing into the south of China. September and 10 are the suitable seasons for transplanting and seedling raising of Heze peony, which can be postponed in the south and advanced in the cold area in the north. Peony is generally planted before freezing, and cold-proof measures should be taken in cold areas to ensure the safe wintering of peony.

Pruning and bud taking are carried out before and after Tomb-Sweeping Day every year, 7- 10 thick branches are selected for each plant, one flower bud is left for each branch, and the rest are all removed. With the increase of tree age and the expansion of crown, branches can be increased appropriately, and the expansion of crown can increase flowering. Peony should be fertilized once a year when it germinates in early spring and after the autumn equinox. In the north of China, deep ploughing should be done in time in spring when it is dry, and weeds and loose soil carved from roots should be done in time in summer and autumn when it is rainy. The common diseases of peony are mainly leaf spot, which mostly occurs in June-August. For timely control, it should be sprayed 500-800 times in the middle and late May, once every 10- 15 days, and then sprayed 3-4 times at the front. China has a vast territory and a very different climate. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust measures to local conditions, strengthen management, and let peony, the national flower, bloom all over the motherland.

Although this flower is new, I don't know or believe in the old one. I didn't see anything at that time, so I wondered if it was better.

There are clouds in ancient times, and there is no positive color in the world. It seems that the world will move at any time. Are the feathers of flamingos beautiful? The color of * * seems to be avoiding newcomers.

What's more, it is far from unreasonable for Su He and He to be praised by later generations. Nature is heartless and suspicious, and it is selfish to be biased.

I also suspect that the smarter a person is, the more subtle his nature is to fight. Otherwise, the prostitution in Yuan Hua will be long, especially in recent years.

If you are constantly striving for something new, you will know what it is in a hundred years. But I am the only one who makes New Flower Day better.
