The origin of the name

Narcissus, its name also has a legend. During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, a Fujian celebrity found a big tea tree beside a temple. Being suppressed by the earth wall of the temple, he separated several twisted trunks. The man found the trunk twisted and interesting, so he dug it out and took it home to plant it. He skillfully used the deformation of the tree to reverse it, and as a result, he cultivated a good fragrant tea. The word "water" in Minnan dialect is beauty, so the tea collected from the beautiful fairy mountain is named ".
