Michelia is a familiar and favorite flower and leaf type plant. It is often planted in the courtyard or potted in the room. When Michelia blossoms, the flowers smell with the wind, and the buds are as white as jade. It is one of the famous fragrant flowers in China. Now let's know the Michelia flower of fragrant orchid in detail~
Michelia introduction Michelia introduction: the smell of Michelia, like a ripe banana, exudes a sweet and attractive taste of esters. Therefore, Michelia is also called banana flower. It is an evergreen shrub, generally 2-3 meters high. It belongs to Michelia of Magnoliaceae in taxonomy. Its buds, twigs, petioles and pedicels are densely covered with yellowish brown fluff. It's a hairy boy. It doesn't feel like a literary name like "Michelle". However, the "Eighteen changes in women's University" will amaze us when Michelia flowers bloom.
You see, there is a smiling flower in full bloom ahead. Gently close, a sweet smell hit, take a few deep breaths, as if to be drunk in the air. Michelia's leaves are inverted egg shaped and densely grow on trees. Hiding among the branches and leaves is our Michelia. You see, some flowers also have Buddha flame bracts, like a shy little girl who opened the curtain and looked out. Some bracts have fallen off, and 6 Ivory petals open but don't put, just like a girl who laughs but doesn't speak. Moreover, the edge of each petal is also painted with exquisite purple lip gloss.

Leaning over the slightly open petals, I saw a bright green pistil group in the middle. The filaments with beautiful rose red anthers clustered around the pistil group, like a group of flower protectors. The flowering period of Michelia is from March to may, and the fruiting period is in July and August in midsummer. Its aggregate fruit is ovoid or spherical, with a short sharp beak at the top.

So, knowing so much about Michelia, do you want to find Michelia with me now? However, first of all, we have to know where Michelia's home is. Michelia is native to provinces and regions in southern South China. For example, there is a wild Michelia in Dinghu Mountain, Guangdong Province. At ordinary times, it likes to grow in the shady slope miscellaneous wood forest, especially by the brook, ditch and valley. However, because of its high ornamental value, it has been widely planted all over the country. Of course, in Wuhan Botanical Garden, there is also the beautiful shadow of Michelia.
