The Yellow Flower Legend in Quxian County

Hello, I'm a member of the Baixiaosheng team in Dazhou, and I'm glad to answer your question.

The yellow flowers in Quxian county have a long history, which can be traced back to the distant prosperous Tang Dynasty or even earlier. Since ancient times, people have said that after eating yellow flowers, no matter what troubles will vanish, so yellow flowers are also called girls without worries. According to legend, Wu Zetian has a soft spot for day lilies. Because she was homesick, she pointed out that she wanted the yellow flowers in her hometown of Sichuan, so she chose the yellow flowers in Quxian as a tribute and shipped them to Chang 'an. Wu Zetian ate a small bowl of yellow flower and tremella soup every day, and was still refreshed and energetic in her 60 s, and eventually became an emperor. Yellow flowers in Quxian county have also become a fashion, attracting rich children in Chang 'an to compete for food.

Legend has a long history, but the yellow flowers in Quxian have their own characteristics, which can attract everyone's pursuit. Ordinary yellow flowers have only six stamens, while Quxian yellow flowers have seven stamens, so Quxian yellow flowers have always been known as the "Queen of Yellow Flowers". At the same time, due to the special soil, water quality and climate in Quxian County, the yellow flowers in Quxian County are delicious in color, rich in fragrance, tender, crisp and refreshing, and rich in nutrition, making them the "first yellow flowers in China" and winning the laurels in national competitions for many times.
