It is said that there was a kind peasant woman in Yuanshan, Caiban Village, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province, who helped beggars who were hungry and cold. The beggar used to be a fairy, spraying his food around the house, and then he planted a golden lamp and a silver platform (narcissus).
3. Legend 1998, a kind young couple (Jin Zhan and Yintai) helped a fairy on the mountain. In return, the fairy told them that there was going to be a flood there, and advised them to leave as soon as possible and not to tell others. The couple couldn't bear to leave by themselves, so they informed the whole village that everyone moved to the highest mountain to avoid the flood that day. Because the couple didn't keep a secret, the fairy turned them into two daffodils, the man into a male flower named Jin Zhan, and the woman into a female flower named Yintai. (Nowadays, androgynous flowers are named like this. )
4. Legend has it that one day a long time ago, when Xian Lingbo in the sky was grinding a treasure mirror by the Milky Way, he accidentally saw through the clouds that the drought in Longhai South Township (now called Jiuhu Township) was serious, the crops failed and the people were poor. The desolate scene touched the heart of the kind fairy, and she left her precious mirror. The mirror fell to the ground and broke into nine pieces. Nanxiang suddenly became nine lakes, and the water gurgled into the countryside. At that time, Jiuhu Lake was full of flowers and fruits, and the rice was ripe and red. Even Ling Boxian was attracted by the beautiful scenery on earth, and couldn't help floating around the lake.
There is a stonemason named Chen Long by the lake, and everyone calls him Brother Long. He was sincere, hardworking and brave, and Ling Bo, the fairy, fell in love with Brother Long. In the lake pond, they tied knots with beads. Fairy Ling Bo is in charge of the water source, and the nine lakes are in good weather every year; Brother Long and the villagers worked hard, and the nine lakes and grains were abundant, making them a fairyland on earth.
I don't want to. The happiness and beauty of this world angered the demon dragon, which sprayed poison in its mouth and burned the pastoral village. In order to defend her home, the fairy Ling Bo fought with the pipa. Brother Long swallowed the treasure and turned it into a dragon, fighting against the demon dragon. Finally, the demon dragon failed and fled to the sky, complaining to the heavenly queen.
The heavenly queen listened to the slanderers and sent heavenly soldiers to punish the fairy Ling Bo and Brother Long. In a blink of an eye, Nanxiang was dark, and the sky moved round the mountain to suppress the nine lakes. Since then, the water source has been cut off and the spring water has dried up. Brother Long was crushed under the round mountain. In the clouds, Ling Bo, the fairy who was caught back to heaven, looked at the destroyed home and lonely brother Long, held her head high and spat out a clear spring. Reluctantly, she took out her silver hairpin and threw it to the miserable south township. The silver hairpin fell beside the clear spring at the foot of the round mountain and became a graceful and fragrant daffodil. Nowadays, at the end of every year, every household in Jiuhu will put a few pots of daffodils at home to express their gratitude to Brother Long and Fairy Lingbo.
A couple named Yao gave birth to a beautiful and well-behaved daughter. When her daughter grew up, she was taken fancy to by local tyrants and wanted to steal her as a wife. The stubborn girl refused to be humiliated and jumped into the river. God had mercy on her chastity and turned her soul into Narcissus. (Yao Nvhua)

Years old, falling flowers are bleak, and a wisp of breeze is absolutely pitiful.
Not all the soil invaded Su Hao, but all the winds showed beauty.
The coquettish soul falls on Hunan guests, and the jade color vaguely catches the moon fairy.
But he laughed at Fu Weng for being too fat and mistook elegance for beauty.

Water can be magical and strange, and Leng Xiang can move ice muscles.

Prose: Daughter's Narcissus
Wang Qingming
I don't know much about flowers, and I don't like growing them. I have never written an article about flowers in an arty way. I lived in Shenga, Zhangzhou, the hometown of daffodils, for four years. I have seen daffodils, let alone seen them. Narcissus, called "Qingming Festival at the end of the year" by elegant people, is placed on the desk, but I don't have the honor.
My second-grade daughter had a winter vacation, and the teacher assigned a question of observing daffodils and keeping a diary. So on the 23rd of the lunar calendar, I bought flowers for the first time. I bought daffodils, and the task of raising flowers was given to my daughter.
I have read some poems about narcissus before, and the Narcissus by Xiamen poet Shu Ting left a deep impression on me: there is a kind of flower in the south, which is sold wholesale and retail to the distant window, borrowed a bowl of clear water, matched with a green leaf, a golden lamp, a silver brace and a poor fragrant soul, which is hard to carve. ... the poet used daffodils to write a woman's tenderness and fate, highlighting her tender and affectionate side, but I have some doubts. My daughter carefully carried the daffodil basin with a smile on her face, which naturally reminded me of this poem I read in college.
Narcissus takes root in white narcissus bulbs and nourishes itself with water. There are no branches, only green leaves stretch into the sky and then fall naturally. It also grows in the cold winter, and the copper branches and iron stems of Chimonanthus praecox are like knives and halberds to resist the cold wind; Narcissus leaves are slender and luxuriant, fluttering like clothes. When the wind blows, it dances sideways.
On the 24th day of the lunar calendar, when my daughter changed water, she found a bud spit out from the top of the leaf and cried out in surprise. I see some flower stems in the leaves. I thought they belonged to leaves at first, but now I have left one or two small buds at her tip. On the 25th, my daughter and I went to see narcissus buds again. The small flame-like bud has changed into the shape of a protruding lip. I teach my daughter an idiom: bud. My daughter wrote it in her diary. I seem to see that when these bulging lips blow, flowers will be exposed, just like my daughter used to blow soap bubbles.
On the morning of the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, my daughter cheered: "Dad, come and see, the daffodils are in bloom!" " "My daughter took my hand and came to the balcony. I saw two small flowers swaying in the wind. Six petals, slightly yellow white, six-sided jade plate; The flower heart in the dish is golden, shaped like a wine glass, full of daughter's joy. I remember someone comparing daffodils to "jade platform with golden lamps" or "golden lamps and silver platforms", which is really appropriate. This daffodil also began to fill my happiness.
At night, my daughter sleeps in her dream. She may dream of this beautiful daffodil. Buried in writing, I suddenly remembered daffodils and looked up some information about daffodils. Liu Kezhuang, a poet in Song Dynasty and a native of Putian, wrote in Narcissus: The falling flowers in old China were bleak, and a gust of wind was absolutely pitiful. Don't let mud invade Su Hao, because the wind reveals my beauty ... I have never raised flowers, and I have a feeling of love and pity for daffodils. I went to my daughter's room to tuck her in and watch her sleep. I really want to kiss her. But I'm not used to this way of expressing love, and I quit silently. My heart is full of tenderness.
The smile of daffodils is very infectious. Four more flowers opened in two days. I'm tired of writing. Looking at the daffodils on the balcony, I seem to hear them giggling together. In the hall, my daughter was watching TV, and the plot made her laugh from time to time. I got up and The Journey to the West was playing on the TV in the hall. Any novel plot in the play will cause her to cheer and laugh happily. Carefree childhood, it's good. I stroked my daughter's head and went back to work in my room.
Narcissus is my daughter's flower and mine. I decided to write some words to record the traces of these years. Happiness is not short-lived, but easily forgotten. I wrote this article just to leave this happiness in it.
I remember watching flower farmers grow daffodils when I was in Zhangzhou. Many people don't know that narcissus didn't grow in water at first, but was buried in the soil. Huanong carved the narcissus bulb with a meat cleaver, then buried it in the soil until roots, stems and leaves grew, then dug it out and nourished it with clear water.
The beauty of daffodils is carefully carved, and the soil once gave her the earliest nutrients. Opening the business is Narcissus's own business, so let me make this initial soil. I found Wordsworth's ode to the daffodil and recited it gently:
……
How many times have I lied alone,
Feel bored and empty;
This scene flashed through my mind,
How many times have comforted my loneliness;
My heart dances with daffodils again,
My heart is full of joy again.
Another daffodil bloomed on the balcony outside the window, and the leaves and flowers danced in the cold wind. Like Wordsworth, I found the sustenance of my heart, smelled the fragrance like daffodils from the depths of my life, and was filled with joy again.
Cultivation of fairy flowers
Narcissus is a perennial herb bulbous flower of Amaryllidaceae, also known as garlic, Li Lan, Yao Nvhua and Nvshi Flower. It blooms when the weather is cold and the flowers are quiet at the end of the year. It is elegant, beautiful and refined, and it has always been loved by poets and literati. China has cultivated daffodils for at least 1000 years. There are two kinds of daffodils in China: single and double. Single petal white, yellow heart like a lamp, so it is called golden lamp and silver platform. The double petals are called Chiba Narcissus, which is wrinkled, delicate and lovely, also known as Yulinglong. Single petal and double petal are two kinds of flowers, and double petal system evolved from single petal. Foreign small narcissus, also known as funnel narcissus, originated in Europe. In April, when the flower stems are pulled out, the flowers are solitary, but there are several flowers in one stem, but the flower shape is small, the petals are yellow or light yellow, the central crown is yellow or orange, and it is long cylindrical, protruding out of the petals, and the edges are wrinkled, which is unique to the wind. Chinese narcissus belongs to the type of short accessory crown, while foreign narcissus belongs to the type of long accessory crown and middle accessory crown, which is the main difference. Hyacinthus orientalis and Chinese narcissus, commonly known as "narcissus", belong to Liliaceae, but not the same family. Zhangzhou narcissus in China has big bulbs, many arrows and flowers, and strong fragrance. It has always enjoyed a high reputation and is famous for its reputation. Not only sold well in the domestic market, but also exported in large quantities as early as the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. Narcissus is also the most popular variety in the foreign potted flower market today.
There is a formula for the cultivation of daffodils: "May is not in the soil, the reserve month is not in the room, and it is planted under the hedge, and the flowers bloom for a long time." There is a passage in the specific method "Qunfangpu": "In May, the roots are harvested, soaked in urine for one night, dried in the sun, mixed with warm soil, and hung in the place where fire and smoke can reach. Take it out in August, separate the petals and mix it with pig manure. After planting, there should be no shortage of water. " This is the old law. Now the common method, taking Zhangzhou narcissus as an example, is to plant narcissus before and after the first frost every year (bury the narcissus head in the ground), dig it out before the Dragon Boat Festival the following year, wash it, dry it and collect it, and then plant it during the first frost. This can only be sold after three years of repetition.
Narcissus, as an ornamental plant, is usually planted with water. Peel off the dry scales on the dug bulbs, and draw a cross line or two on the upper part of the bulbs with a knife to loosen the scales and facilitate the extraction of flower buds. Then soak in water for a day, then wash off the mucus on the knife edge, put it in a shallow basin, and put some stones around it, so as to keep it stable and scaly, so as not to fall off, and it will be more interesting at the same time. The water in the basin is about 1 inch deep. It will take root in a few days, shoot arrows in ten days, and blossom gradually in January or so. Because daffodils like sunshine, they should be placed in a ventilated and sunny place, but the humidity should not be too high. It is best to change the water once a day to make the stems and leaves grow thick, the leaves are short and the flowers are high, and the flowering period is lasting. If the light is too poor and the room temperature is too high, there will be some undesirable phenomena such as long leaves, weak stems, short flower stems and short flowering period.
Narcissus is also different from "air head" and "crab claw" The so-called "person in charge of the enterprise" is to put daffodils in water and grow naturally with daffodils; The so-called "crab claw" is artificial carving, so that the leaves no longer grow straight, but unfold like crab claws and curl beautifully and charmingly. After carving, daffodils can also simulate various patterns and make bonsai. Some are like peacocks welcoming spring, some are like phoenix rising in the morning, some are like dragons, and some are like flying butterflies. They are quaint, interesting and beautiful.
