The West God of the West God

In the twelfth year of the Republic of China, Wu Enyuan, the owner of Jiufengge, wrote a book entitled "A Little History of Orchids and Cymbidiums", which talked about Xishen, and the book said: "Rong Wenqing of Wuxi planted it. Three short round petals, flat side, bushy shallow pocket cupped heart, Liu Hai tongue, door shoulder, long stem, color green. Although known as plum, is actually the daffodil door of no top quality." Seven years later the book "renewed orchids and cymbidium concentric record" on the origin: "West God plum out of Fenghua, the Chen family name of the mountain guests with flowers to Wuxi, the first for Mr. Rong Wenqing, transferred to Mr. Yang Lusheng hand planted. Three petals flat side, round head, large paved tongue, Guanyin pocket, flat shoulder, color and light most beautiful Yao, unique charm. The beauty of the species is also." Shen Yuanru's "Orchids" and "Orchids of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and China" thought that this kind of orchid was obtained by Mr. Rong Wenqing in 1912; "Nai'anju Art Orchid Penchants" and "Three Hundred Questions on Chinese Orchid Art" thought that this kind of orchid was obtained by Mr. Rong Wenqing in 1911. Ten years later, "A Little History of Orchids and Cymbidiums" recorded this species, and in the last ten years, "Continuing Orchids and Cymbidiums Concordance Record" also recorded this species, so it can be seen that "Xishenmei" was spreading between Jiangsu and Zhejiang in more than twenty years from Fenghua to Wuxi, and then to Hangzhou and Shangyu.

The poem of "West God Plum" in "Continued Orchid and Cymbidium Concordance" is as follows:

Mountain spirit and yuxiu out of the orchid, not stained by the red dust is not a good name.

The bones of the immortal are in the valley, and the soul of the Chu is in the river city.

The petals are divided into five numbers to achieve full happiness, and the flowers are sent out in three springs to keep a single clear sky.

Favoring the Lord of the world, when the time comes, it will not be the Secretary of State. .... The poem is a broken poem, the flower is a good flower.

The West God from the Siming Mountain area of Fenghua, where the Hepatitis Hepatitis River flows, is a natural mutation of the ordinary wild spring orchid varieties, such as jadeite grown in the stone, and only Fenghua, which is a place of great talent, will be able to take off such exotic flowers and grasses. According to the theory of orchid petal type, Xishen is not "Mei", but the orchid people can't help but add the word "Mei" after the name of Xishen, and it is generally thought that "Mei" is better than "Narcissus", but the heirloom Jiangzhe Spring Orchid is a natural mutation of wild spring orchids, like emerald growing from stones. But the four heavenly kings of Jiangzhe and Zhejiang Spring Orchids, Song, Jie, Long and Wang, are the two Narcissus and two Mei, Song Mei and Jieyuan of Meigue, and Long and Wang of Narcissus, which are the model and classic of Mei and Narcissus respectively, but these four heavenly kings have to be the most expensive one in Xishen, and it will be an offense if I say so. The people of a lot of people, set round less, is considered a family only, Song set dragon Wang I also planted.

The good thing about Xishen is that it is in the middle of Narcissus and Mei, just the right one flower, from the theory of orchid petal type to consider historically, its characteristics between Mei, Xian and get the center. In the same period, Fenghua also produced a person called Zhongzheng, which has no correlation, I don't know, the definition of Chinese orchid culture out of Confucianism, Zhongzheng is the basic spirit of the character of the flower, the flower of the best quality, the color of Song Jilongwang is not worse than Xishen, the spirit of the bone strength and elegance of the spirit is not worse than the Xishen, but the Xishen happens to be the saint of the two categories of Plum, Xian, out of the gods, the flawless work of the creation of the orchid, the orchid's group of flowers in the spectrum of the extraordinary!

The Nishijin is a perfect work of art.

The flower is so good that it is called God, not too much.
