Brief introduction of red bean tree
Name: Red Bean Tree
Latin scientific name: red bean tree,
Classification of families and genera: Leguminosae Crotalaria (tree),
Nicknames: Hershey Red Bean, Hubei Red Bean, Jiangyin Red Bean.
Role description:
Evergreen or deciduous trees, up to 20 ~ 30 meters, DBH up to 1 meter; The bark is grayish green and smooth. Branchlets green; Odd-pinnate compound leaves, with 2 pairs of leaflets, alternate or opposite, thin leathery, ovoid or ovoid-elliptic, acute or tapering at the apex, rounded or broadly cuneate at the base, and 8 ~ 10 pairs of lateral veins. Panicle terminal or axillary, long 15 ~ 20 cm, pendulous; Flowers are thin and fragrant; Corolla white or reddish. The pod is nearly round, flat, with a short beak at the top, and the fruit petal is nearly leathery and brown, with 1 ~ 2 seeds. The seeds are nearly round or oval, with a length of 1.5 ~ 1.8 cm, a width of 1.2 ~ 1.5 cm, a thickness of about 5 mm and a bright red seed coat. The flowering period is from April to May, and the fruiting period is 10- 1 1.
Origin:
Shaanxi (South), Gansu (Southeast), Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, Hubei, Sichuan, Guizhou and other places. Most of them were born by rivers, hillsides and valleys.
Use:
Red bean tree is a kind of red bean (tree) distributed in the northernmost latitude, which is relatively cold-resistant. The wood is hard and meticulous, the texture is shiny and beautiful, and the heartwood is resistant to decay. It is a precious material for excellent wood carving technology, high-grade furniture, special decoration and inlay. Roots and seeds are used as medicine. The tree has elegant posture and shady crown, which can be used as a good landscaping tree species. The seeds are bright red and the color remains unchanged for many years. They are often given to relatives and friends as a symbol of nostalgia. Since ancient times, red beans have been regarded as a symbol of love and acacia. At present, there are few big trees, which are national second-class protected wild plants.
Pre-propagation planting method
The preservation of Taxus resources and rapid propagation of seedlings are the basis to solve the problem of taxol timber forest construction, and the construction of large-scale Taxus plantation is the way to solve the problem of taxol raw materials. When raising seedlings with Taxus chinensis seeds, it is necessary to maintain the storage method of seeds, mix sand seeds or control the temperature, which has a good effect on budding after wintering and breaking the dormancy habit. Rub the seed coat before sowing, soak it in warm water and treat it with drugs and hormones. Shading after emergence is the key to raising seedlings? It can prevent the seedlings from being burned at high temperature, keep them moist and have a light transmittance of 40%. The emergence rate of Taxus cuspidata and Taxus cuspidata can reach 70-80%, and the emergence temperature should be higher than 65438 05 degrees.
The dynamic growth of seedlings is as follows: the plant height and stem diameter of seedlings grow slowly two years before emergence, and the plant height generally grows about 10CM in one year, and grows faster after transplanting for one year. In 3-5 years, the annual increase can reach 20-30CM.
Note: Red bean, distributed in Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan and other places in southern China, is a woody vine with thin branches, blooming in spring and summer and beige seeds. Its roots, leaves and seeds are all toxic, and the seeds are the most toxic.
