From Zhu De's "Yong Lan".
Original poem: Yuexiu Park's flower forest, flowers in spring, orchids and flowers are just right, and they are precious for a while.
Interpretation: Yuexiu Park is full of flowers and trees. Only the fragrance of orchids in the world is the best and the most intoxicating; In the season when orchids are in full bloom, it is the most precious treasure in Wuyang City.
Extended data:
Since ancient times, our people have loved orchids, cultivated orchids, recited orchids and painted orchids. The ancients once praised "it is better to watch flowers than to watch leaves". People appreciate the fortitude of orchids, which are based on vegetation, do not compete with others for profits, are not afraid of frost and snow bullying, and are persevering. "Lan Zhi was born in a deep valley, but he is not fragrant to no one." Orchids have always been regarded as a symbol of nobility and elegance, and are called "four gentlemen" together with plum blossom, bamboo and chrysanthemum.
