In midsummer, do you still remember Xia Ziwei, a flower house by Daming Lake?

Midsummer, graduation season. Let's have fun. Excuse me, do you remember Xia Ziwei by Daming Lake?

I think for me, the first thing that comes to mind for many post-80s generation must be the traditional and gentle Tamaki, Xia's daughter in Princess Pearl.

For me, Ziwei, when I didn't know this plant, it was already beautiful in my summer.

When I was in primary and secondary schools, there was a holiday manor opposite my community, with many small villas and many flowers planted in front of the yard. I only know roses, but what I remember most clearly is Lagerstroemia indica.

Because every time I pass the gate, I can always see a big tree full of flowers. The color of flowers is pink, and it feels elegant in summer. Later, I heard the old man at the door say, "This tree is amazing. If you touch it, it will move because it is ticklish. "

I tried it, and it really moved, at least the branches and leaves were shaking, but I didn't know whether the wind or the tree was really ticklish at that time, so I thought it was amazing.

Later, I went to college, and our teacher Yan, who teaches dendrology, was a very interesting person. He said, "In order to make it easier for everyone to know plants, I want everyone to choose a plant to represent themselves and use its Latin masterpiece as their nickname, so that whoever I talk about in class will stand up and introduce it to everyone."

Haha, it turned out to be very useful, and everyone's enthusiasm was very high. I chose a plant with a similar name to mine, Ziwei.

Lagerstroemia indica (Latin scientific name: Lagerstroemia indica), alias prurigo, zinnia, full house red, Lagerstroemia indica, deciduous shrub or small tree.

The bark is light brown, the stem is particularly smooth after peeling, the branches are curved, and the branches are hairless on all sides.

Flowers are terminal panicles, bright red, and bloom from June to September.

The capsule is nearly spherical, 6-valved, with persistent calyx at the base, and the fruit 10~ 1 1 month matures.

The varieties are Yin Wei (with white or purplish flowers and light green leaves), Cuiwei (with purple flowers and dark green leaves) and Hongwei.

Like light, warm climate, fertile, moist and well-drained calcareous soil, drought-tolerant, afraid of waterlogging; Strong germination, pruning resistance, slow growth and long life.

? Potted Lagerstroemia indica should be pruned after flowering to accumulate nutrients, which is conducive to flowering next year.

? Lagerstroemia indica has beautiful posture, smooth trunk, bright colors, lush spikes and clusters of powder clouds, which are fascinating; It happens to be summer and autumn when it blooms, and the flowering period is particularly long.

It is most suitable for planting in courtyards and buildings, and also suitable for planting in Chi Pan, roadside and lawn.

? It's the season of crape myrtle blossom. When I go to work every day, I can see the beautiful scenery of several colors of crape myrtle blooming together, and my mood will become cheerful. I'll share it with you. I hope you like it.
