Where is the specialty of Xingguo Rhododendron?

Xingguo County, Jiangxi Province, where 54 founding generals of New China were born, is a famous "general county" in China. Today, Xingguo is famous for its rapid development of azalea cultivation. At present, the county has become the largest rhododendron producing area in Jiangxi and the most influential rhododendron producing area in the south. A few days ago, the reporter saw in Gaoxing Town, Xingguo County that a piece of Belgian rhododendron greenhouse extended on both sides of the 3 19 National Road. According to Wang, the stationmaster of the county agricultural technology extension station, there are more than 100 households in Xingguo at present, and the planting area is 1600 mu, and it is still growing at the rate of 1000 mu every year.

I can't describe how beautiful, spectacular, vast and gorgeous it is. The red in full swing wants to drown people in the past and the future, making people feel dizzy looking up at the sky.

The climate is suitable. With the support of the government, Xingguo belongs to the subtropical monsoon humid climate zone, with mild climate, abundant sunshine, abundant rain and long frost-free period. The annual average temperature is 65438 08.9℃, which is very suitable for the growth of rhododendrons. The reporter saw in the cuckoo production shed of Huanong Youyuyuan that the cuttings after rooting were directly inserted into the yellow mud and grew very healthy. You Yuyuan said that the local soil is rich in nutrients. As long as the concentration of rooting liquid is adjusted, it can be directly cut into the soil. He randomly pulled out a cutting seedling that had grown for two months, and the root system was very lush. The local facilities for planting azaleas are also very simple, all of which are simple greenhouses made of wood and bamboo, but the leaves of azaleas produced are healthy dark green. Miao Nansheng, director of the Flower Institute of Jiangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences, who visited Xingguo, believes that the quality of azaleas produced in Xingguo is by no means lower than that in Fujian.

Gaoxing Town, Xingguo County is a national demonstration site for new rural construction. As early as 2003, the town was affiliated by the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, and it took three years to build a famous "Yigui Community", which vigorously developed agricultural and sideline industries from point to area, making Gaoxing Town/Kloc-0.2 million farmers get rich first. In the past two years, there have been incisive communities such as Shangxiajie, Shanggangshang and Xiahoutang. He has been awarded the honorary titles of Advanced Grassroots Party Organization of the Central Organization Department and Advanced Grassroots Party Organization of Jiangxi Province.

"Hong Ying" flowers are one of the top ten industries in Gaoxing Town, such as flue-cured tobacco and seed production, with a total area of more than 700 mu. This beautiful achievement cannot be separated from the sincerity of the cadres stationed in the town and the town leadership team. At that time, in order to expand the industry and broaden the way for farmers to get rich, the village cadres and town leaders conducted market surveys three times and five times, and finally found that flowers had great prospects, so they planned to use them as a demonstration base on a rocky mountain in Xinqiao, Gaoxing Village near 3 19 National Road. Wang Nanfang, a flower farmer, is the first person to plant azaleas in Xingguo County. At present, his azalea planting area has reached more than 70 mu, with an annual output of more than 200,000 pots. According to him, some local growers invited masters with many years of experience in planting azaleas from Fujian to manage the production in order to make the product quality excellent. From June 5438 to 10, 2007, local flower farmers jointly established a professional cuckoo production cooperative and set up a cuckoo sales window in Fangcun, Guangzhou. Cooperatives organize scattered flower farmers in the town, implement unified organization and coordination, unified purchase and sale, unified technical guidance, and realize order planting. Under the leadership of Yu Yuyuan and other flower farmers, the relevant personnel of the cooperative went to Beijing five times and won the contract of 2 million pots of Olympic flowers.

There is a plaque in the planting base in this area, "College students from a village in Xingguo County plan to be the practice base of landscape technology specialty". This is a joint project with some agricultural and forestry schools in Jiangxi province, which allows college students with theoretical knowledge to enter the base and discuss the cultivation of azaleas with farmers with practical experience, so as to combine theory with actual production. In order to further improve the cultivation technology of rhododendron, Xingguo County Flower Association specially hired talented flower growers and horticultural flower experts as technical consultants to train flower farmers on flower knowledge, solve the cultivation technical problems, and effectively prevent and control common diseases such as anthracnose and red spider. The Flower Association also established a special flower website, which attracted many foreign merchants to sign contracts through the network. At the same time, the Flower Association often organizes flower farmers to go north to Nanchang, Shanghai and Hangzhou, and south to Guangzhou, Xiamen and Fuzhou to participate in various flower fairs to promote and sell the rhododendrons of rejuvenating the country to merchants all over the country.

Rhododendron is not a single red, but different varieties are different colors: raw red is like fire, violet is like autumn swallow feathers, and pink on the crown is a girl's cheek bathed in sunshine; The petals of double happiness, known as the crown of cuckoo, are red and yellow. In the azalea shed, crowds of people are intoxicated with azaleas. There are also ivy, fujiko, arhat pine, bonsai and so on. Although they are not as outstanding as azaleas, their participation makes azaleas more dazzling, just like the vast sky and vast land. If these two major events are to depend on each other, the middle must be filled with humble people. In order to promote more flowers, in recent years, flowers have been provided during the opening activities of new buildings in several big cities such as Qingdao, Shanghai and Guangzhou.

Because of the spring rain, there is a diffuse fragrance of flowers. Rhododendrons are in full bloom, and "Hong Ying" flowers have become a famous "cornucopia" in all directions.
