Azalea, whose scientific name is Rhododendron, is one of the top ten famous flowers in China. Among all ornamental flowers and trees, it is said to have beautiful flowers and leaves, is suitable for both ground planting and potted planting, and has the most extensive uses. Bai Juyi praised it and said: "Two branches are broken off and held in the hand. If you look closely, they don't look like they exist in the world. The thing in the flower is Xi Shi, and the whip, rong, and peony are all from the mother." Among the natural distribution of azaleas in the world, there are many types and huge quantities, none of which can match China. China is the treasure house of azalea resources in the world! Today, Jiangxi, Anhui, and Guizhou use azalea as their provincial flower, and as many as seven or eight cities have designated it as the city flower, which shows people's great love for azalea. When the azaleas bloom, it coincides with the time when the cuckoos sing. The ancients left many poems and beautiful and touching legends, and there is also the custom of using flowers as festivals. Rhododendrons are mostly shrubs or small trees. They have their own living habits and shapes due to different ecological environments. The smallest plants are only a few centimeters tall, cushion-shaped and grow close to the ground. The largest one is several feet high, standing majestically and spectacularly.
China is the distribution center of rhododendrons, with about 460 species distributed in all provinces and regions except Xinjiang and Ningxia. Southeastern Tibet, southwestern Sichuan, and northwestern Yunnan are the most concentrated producing areas, each accounting for more than 100 species. The azalea varieties in Yunnan alone account for more than half of the national varieties. Many countries in the world introduced species from here.
Rhododendron is a large genus. There are about 900 species in the world, distributed in Europe, Asia and North America. Asia has the most, with 850 species, of which there are more than 530 species in my country, accounting for 10% of the world's total. 59%, especially concentrated in the Hengduan Mountains in Yunnan, Tibet and Sichuan provinces, is the birthplace and distribution center of rhododendrons in the world. There are also many species in Bhutan, Sikkim, Nepal, Myanmar, and northern India in the Himalayas. There are only a few species in Japan, North Korea, Soviet Siberia, and the Caucasus.
In the middle of the night, I look forward to the dawn. In the cold winter months, I look forward to the spring breeze. If you want the Red Army to come, the mountains will bloom with azalea.
If you want the Red Army to come, the mountains will bloom. Azalea is blooming all over the mountains, azalea is blooming all over the mountains, azaleas are blooming all over the mountains
At midnight, we are looking forward to the dawn, in the cold winter month, we are looking forward to the spring breeze. If we want to hope for the coming of the Red Army, the mountains are blooming. Azalea blooms all over the mountain
If you want the Red Army to come, azalea blooms all over the mountains, azalea blooms all over the mountains, azalea blooms all over the mountains
This lyrics describes It is the Red Army that brings people hope and rebirth, just like the azaleas blooming all over the mountains in spring.
