Where the sky is full, there is a summer hug.

Where the sky is full, there is a summer hug.

On a sunny day, the gorgeous Camptotheca acuminata is boiling in summer. They open for the second time, grow tenaciously, and never stop climbing ... Although the flowers are gorgeous, they are not fragrant. Full bloom, but a silent heart.

Tang poetry said: "misty rain is better than the edge of the cloister, lingering under the flowers." It's sunny, the morning light is slightly dew, and the new rain has stopped at the beginning. It's a sad feeling to linger under a campbell flower, watching the swaying life and feeling the crazy growth of the soul.

Summer is not only an immediate encounter, but also a struggle with the past. No matter where the flowers bloom, they are breathtaking scenery. Those flowers that have been blooming towards the sky have opened this warm summer and also opened on the road we have traveled.

When I first met Ling Xiaohua, it was most suitable for accidents.

After all, the popularity and recognition of Camptotheca acuminata is not better than plum blossom, chrysanthemum, lotus flower or peony. Maybe no one will go anywhere to see Camptotheca acuminata. Even if you see it, you may not be able to name it.

Lazy summer, it is better to let go of some sense of ceremony, as long as we meet along the way. In many places, you can see the brilliant shadow of Jinbaolian: in small streets, yards, trees, rocks, walls and even wires, Jinbaolian's long vines and small funnel-shaped orange flowers may be crawling towards the sky and growing vigorously.

"What flower is that?" Ordinary scenery always touches people's hearts when they are casual.

In the long summer, Cinnamomum camphora is there, in the right place, waiting for the right time and meeting the right person.

People in China have a long history of cultivating Camptotheca acuminata. In Compendium of Materia Medica, Li Shizhen made a detailed account of Camptotheca acuminata:

"Dedicated to the wild, vines but a few feet, on the wood, that is, a few feet high. The old one is as big as a cup, with branches in early spring, a few leaves, sharp teeth and dark blue. From the solstice of summer to autumn, there are more than ten flowers, as big as morning glory, with five petals on the head, yellow and thin, and deeper and redder in autumn. "

Camptotheca acuminata is long enough to accompany people all summer. Camptotheca acuminata is also in full bloom, and the bright red and orange colors fill people's eyes like colorful summer days. Everyone who loves big flowers and happy trees will leave a surprise and joy in his heart that he will never forget when the gorgeous scenery comes.

Someone planted a Camptotheca acuminata in the front yard, let Hua Teng climb up, climb the roof, hang it on the wall, and dance against the wind. From summer to autumn, it is always bright and warm.

Beautiful camphor trees that bloom in their own homes will also enter the eyes and hearts of passers-by. I have always admired the owner who planted camphor trees. Must be a cheerful and elegant person, but also must be a compassionate person to the world.

However, in the scorching sun, Jinbaohua may still be too enthusiastic, so it is matched with the elegant white walls and gray tiles in the south of the Yangtze River, or along the ancient city walls and courtyard walls, covered with vines of Jinbaohua. Against the backdrop of ancient and quaint masonry and enclosure, clusters of orange-red flowers are hanging in full bloom, as if from ancient genes, and they have transformed into new life.

Summer will leave a lot of secrets, bright flowers and happy trees, like an endless smile, will climb over the vicissitudes of life, giving birth to a wisp of concern in my heart.

People in China have known about Camptotheca grandiflora for a long time. According to the Book of Songs, Lingxiao flower is "a beautiful flower, but also expensive"-Lingxiao was called "Lingxiao" at that time.

However, many people know Ling Xiao for the first time, probably not in the Book of Songs, but in Shu Ting's To the Oak Tree: "If I love you, I will never show off myself with your high branches like climbing Lingxiao Flower ..."

Writers like to use "contrast", but sometimes it is a bad technique, because whenever they praise something, they will prefer something. Climbing high and rising up is indeed the biological characteristic of Ling Xiao, but it is unfair to belittle Ling Xiao as a synonym for snobbery.

Generally speaking, Ling Xiao can't develop independently. He is always holding on to something, either a tree or a stone or a wall. ...

Therefore, it is not just Shu Ting who is biased against Ling Xiao. Bai Juyi's "Lingxiaohua" said, "I claim to be powerful, and I have no reason to waver. Once the tree falls, independence temporarily floats. " It means that although Lingxiao can blossom in the air, it is because the tree to which it is attached has not wavered; Once the tree falls down, the camphor tree will disappear.

Su Shi saw Lingxiao intertwined with pine trees and wrote a poem: "Splendid Lingxiao flowers, what's so tangled?" It has nothing to do with this. "Mr. Dongpo raised a glass of wine and poured it on the roots of pine trees and Lingxiao, as if to pay tribute to these two plants, but at the same time he was comforting Lingxiao: it's nothing, so don't get entangled ... Obviously, he still doesn't like Lingxiao's attachment behavior.

People blame Camptotheca grandiflora for being arrogant and forgetting its roots and surpassing other flowers. However, it has both the name "Lingxiao" and its own ambitions.

Li Yu, a Qing Dynasty man, said, "There is nothing more venerable than Lingxiao." In his view, this flower "looks like a real person in the sky". Although we can't reach the sky, we will always go to heaven, open, climb and climb, and send beauty to the heights.

Grapevine is not only a kind of Campbell, it may be one of the plants with the strongest growth ability from the flat ground. With the help of qigen, it climbs tenaciously, strives for progress and never compromises. "A few faded reds follow the crowd" has a momentum far exceeding that of peers.

"The clouds are like Ling Yunzhi, I don't care about the sun." Ling Xiao not only has lofty aspirations, but also has an increasingly fiery heart, and even dares to compete with the sun. His soul is filled with a passion and persistence that never goes out.

With Ling Xiao's imposing manner and temperament, he is brave and energetic. Unless he is strong, he can't do it.

The world only sees the bright surface of Cinnamomum camphora, but little is known about the tenacity and efforts of the rocks that support the roots behind it. In the arduous journey, Ling Xiao was able to overcome the crowd, not by persistence, but by self-confidence and courage. From this perspective, Camptotheca acuminata deserves the respect and hope of all plants and flower protectors.

Ling Xiao is very powerful. Lingxiao in the impression, Ang's first stop is in the clouds, enjoying himself.

However, we also know that Lingxiao is fragile by looking at its bright colors on high places and the twigs supporting the flowers.

This contrast, in people's eyes, seems to be similar to a mother who gave birth to a strong life with a weak body. Therefore, in the western flower language, Ling Xiao also symbolizes the love of loving mother, and Ling Xiao often puts it together with Holly and Primula to form a bouquet for her mother.

In the tradition of China, although there is no image of maternal love, Camptotheca acuminata also has a strong and tenacious meaning.

In the Ming Dynasty, Gao Qi described a Camptotheca acuminata in Zhan Muxuan, leaning against a tall tree and leading the vines to climb, enjoying a beautiful spring. After the tree was cut down, Lingxiao still grew tenaciously and flourished, which not only broke people's consistent cognition of Lingxiao, but also endowed it with the spirit of self-improvement.

People and flowers always complement each other. China people never only pay attention to color and fragrance, but also give consideration to the overall image and life characteristics. Ling Xiao has strong adaptability, can grow in barren land or even crevices, can climb with foreign objects, and can blossom on cliffs and tall tree tops. How can anyone who has seen Ling Xiao not be moved by its tenacity? Therefore, although the vines such as Camptotheca acuminata seem to be difficult to be elegant, they have attracted people's attention and left many poems.

Although Ling Xiao's flowers look silly, they are also very fragile.

Camptotheca acuminata has a nickname "I can't take it away"-if I take it off the branch, it won't go far, and the flowers will fall off the stem. Seemingly weak and easy to destroy, there is a kind of unyielding courage to die, which adds a sense of nobility.

If the golden treasure flower falls off naturally, the situation of flower falling off will also have a sense of pleasure. One by one, pattering, falling to the ground, soft and brilliant. No wonder Lu You wrote a poem: "Listen to cicadas in June and don't sweep the floor." Campbell in summer, whether brilliant or sparse, whether comfortable or lonely, even if it is extremely accidental, will become an indelible landscape in my heart.

Long summer road, trudging all the way, regardless of success or failure, I hope that when you look back, you can see this brilliant and noble flower. Those who are determined and those who are heartbroken will always make you feel grateful.
