When did camellia flower arrangement begin?

The poem "Sea Willow" written by the Tang Dynasty poet Wen mentioned earlier not only wrote double petals of camellia, but also wrote camellia flower arrangement. "The leaves are cut indiscriminately, and the flowers should be inserted into the temples." This means that the green leaves of camellia are like beautifully cut stationery, and its flowers are women's favorite accessories for inserting temples. "Flowers should be inserted into temples" just shows that in the Tang Dynasty, camellia has become the custom of "hairpin flowers". At that time, women put flower needles on their temples as decorations. Camellia's development from ground planting and potted plants to vase offering (flower arrangement) is an artistic deep processing and re-creation of Camellia, which is itself a cultural sublimation. If the art of flower arrangement is a masterpiece of China flower culture, then the art of flower arrangement of camellia is a magnificent chapter. In ancient China, flower arrangement was called "vase sacrifice" and "vase play", and the inserted flowers were called "vase flowers". Dong Xiang, a Song Dynasty painter now in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, painted the "bottle offering" of camellia. In particular, the publication of Yuan Hongdao's monograph "History of the Bottle" in the Ming Dynasty made a comprehensive theoretical summary of the art of flower arrangement, which made Camellia emerge in the art of flower arrangement. Regarding the application of camellia in the art of flower arrangement, The History of Bottles says: "Plum blossoms take Yingchun, Daphne odora and Camellia as maids ... Chrysanthemum takes Huangbai, Baishan tea and Haitang as maids ... Every maid's posture is rich and elegant, and some people have commented: ... Camellia is fresh, Daphne odora in Phnom Penh is fragrant, and roses are beautiful. Camellia not only plays the supporting role of "Flower Messenger" in "Bottle Opera", but also plays the main roles of "Flower Guest" and "Flower Alliance Leader". In Yuan Hongdao's History of Bottles, the protagonist's flower is called "Huakui", and the flower that is not as good as "Huakui" is called "Huakeqing". Keqing is the official name of the Qin Dynasty. People from other countries are invited to be officials in their own countries, and they are treated with courtesy, so they are called "guest officials". The position of chayuan in Zhongshan in Ming Dynasty in Tu Benjun's History of Bottles is: "The first month-based on flowers: white, tea plum; Hua Keqing: Camellia ... 1 1 month-Hua Keqing: Zhang Cha. "Camellia" was also listed as "vase flower" by the ancients. There are four kinds of camellias in Zhang Gande's The Vase in Ming Dynasty: one product with nine lives: Yunnan tea; Two products and eight lives: yellow and baishan tea; Three products and seven lives: tea; Six products and four lives: tea plum. " The "Jiupin", which began at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, became the official rank in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, with the highest grade and the last product. "Nine lives" is the nine ranks of the official titles in the Zhou Dynasty, with nine lives as the highest and one life as the last. There are camellias in the first three grades, and camellias are really in the top three.
