The "Chinese Tallow Tree" in Hangzhou is here!

Chinese Tallow Tree is a plant of the Euphorbiaceae family and is a tree species unique to China! The name of this plant comes from the fact that the roots of the tree rot into a mortar shape when the tree is old. With the change of times, people added a wood character to the side of the mortar character, which evolved into the current "Chinese Tallow Tree". Ancient books such as "Qi Min Yao Shu", "Nong Zheng Quan Shu" and "Compendium of Materia Medica" by Li Shizhen in the Ming Dynasty all recorded its cultivation and utilization. It can be seen that the Chinese Tallow Tree has been an existence that people have been looking forward to since ancient times! Now in autumn and winter, Uncle Cricket suggests that you come to Baoshu North Road to check in the "Chinese Tallow Tree", and experience the artistic conception of Yang Wanli's "The leaves of the sycamore are new yellow and the leaves of the persimmon are red, and the Chinese tallow tree and the red maple are added."! Baoshu North Road is located in Xihu District, Hangzhou. In just two kilometers, more than 400 Chinese Tallow Trees are planted. At present, the Chinese Tallow Trees on Baoshu North Road have not completely turned red, mainly in yellow and green, and there are all stages, and some have even begun to shed leaves, and the branches are gradually bare. Brown, bright yellow, orange-red, bright red, dark red... The leaves of various colors appear on the same tree in different combinations. This is really interesting! Moreover, the Chinese Tallow Tree is not only beautiful in leaves, but also the structure of the branches is revealed after the leaves fall off, and the white Chinese Tallow Tree seeds are dotted on the branches, which has another kind of beauty. Uncle Cricket suggests that friends who want to visit can take Metro Line 2 to [Xianing Bridge] Station and exit at Exit C. I believe you will see it at a glance! In addition, if you are particularly interested in the Chinese Tallow Tree, you can also come to the Xixi River, Liangzhu Ruins Park, Xiaohe Park, Hanggang Park and other scenic spots to check in the Chinese Tallow Tree that has begun to change color!
