Home Has a Fairy Garden

Walking into a large flower shop, the gorgeous peonies are placed at the entrance, magnificent, delicate and colorful, and when you get closer, you will have bursts of fragrance blowing, such as the peony poem by Li Shanfu of the Tang Dynasty: "Invite Le Dongfeng not early Open, after all the fragrances are floating, go upstairs. The buds are like blooming in the fire, and a strange fragrance comes up from the sky...."

One of Yunduo's favorite flowers is the peony. Peony is also known as: peony, flower king, king of Luoyang, and rich flower. It belongs to the Paeoniaceae and is a deciduous subshrub native to China. Like cold and hate heat, it should be dry and fearful of dampness, can withstand low temperatures of minus 30 degrees, and can grow normally in areas with an average annual relative humidity of about 45 percent. Hi light, but also slightly resistant to overcast. It is required to be loose, fertile, and well-drained neutral loam or sandy loam. Avoid planting in heavy soil or low temperature. Flowering period is four to five months.

Peony not only has strong ornamental value, but also has high medicinal value. The root bark of peony has been used as medicine since ancient times, and its name is "Peonie". "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" listed it as a middle grade. Li Shizhen wrote "Materia Medica Paeoniflorin Mu" and said: "Peony is better with sedan". Paeonol is slightly cold in nature, bitter in taste, non-toxic. Enter the heart, liver, and kidney channels. It has the functions of clearing blood, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Indications for macula vomiting, blood stagnation and amenorrhea, premenstrual onset, carbuncle swelling and sore toxin, injury and blood stasis, Yin deficiency onset, no sweat and bone steaming. Clinically, it is mainly used for clearing liver fire and cooling blood to disperse blood stasis (anti-inflammatory, lowering blood pressure), such as fever, night sweats, spontaneous sweating, headache, astringent eyes, irregular menstruation caused by liver depression and fire, often with gardenia, Bupleurum, etc. , Fang Ru "Dan Zhi Xiaoyao San".

Take its heat to dissipate blood stasis and treat acute appendicitis with rhubarb, honeysuckle, etc., such as the addition and subtraction of "Rhubarb Peony Decoction". For those who have hepatic stagnation fever due to hypertension and arterialization, it can be combined with wild chrysanthemum, Shijue Ming, etc. to lower blood pressure. If yin deficiency and fever occur, it can be served with "Artemisia annua and Turtle Jia Decoction" Bleeding from fever can help rhinoceros horns and the birthplace to cool blood to stop bleeding; for those who suffer from blood stasis after contusion, add Danpi and Chi Ai in the prescription to cool blood to remove blood stasis.

Therefore, Danpi is a commonly used medicine for eliminating irritating heat, blood stasis or accumulation of lumps. Paeonol is not only compatible with other medicinal decoctions for the treatment of general acute diseases, but also can be made into pills and tablets that are slow in absorption, long-lasting, and convenient to take, carry, and store.

The edible peony flower began in the Song Dynasty. There was a book in the Ming Dynasty: "The new petals of the peony can also be cooked." "Erruting Qunfangpu" records: "Fried peony flowers, the same method as the magnolia, edible, candied fruit", "petal selection, wash, Dough noodles and cook with sesame oil to make it beautiful." The Qing Dynasty "Yang Xiaolu" records: "Peony petals, soup can be boiled, honey can be soaked, and gravy can also be braised."

Peony flowers can be eaten in various ways, such as frying, roasting, frying or making soup, etc., all can be delicious. For example, the "gravy peony" made of peony flowers and meat is bright in color, delicious and delicious. The bright peony flowers are fried and eaten after being wrapped in flour. They are delicious and attractive. They are dipped in sugar and are excellent preserves; when making soups , Sprinkle some peony petals in the soup, the color is bright, fragrant, delicious, and appetite is refreshed. In addition, peony braised fish fillets, peony fried duck breast, etc. are also seasonal delicacies.

Thinking of the many benefits of peony, Yunduo decided to buy a peony back home. Yunduo chose a pale green peony. The crystal clear green is deeply loved by Yunduo. The petals are densely green and hug, like white clouds, reminding people of the beautiful scene of the green wave fairy floating in space, which is pleasing to the eye. Looking closely, she seemed to be an ancient lady, shy and shy, looking at this different world.

Yun Duo happily chose this pot of peony, and he told the owner to pick it up after a while, and then went on shopping.

Then Yunduo bought a pot of peppermint. The peppermint leaves contain peppermint oil (the main components of menthol and menthone), peppermint cream, camphor terpene, lemon terpene, protein, fat, carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins. Mint is better with more leaves, green color and strong smell. The tender stems and leaves can be used as refreshing drinks and cakes. Main components: The whole plant contains volatile oil, the main components of which are menthol, menthone, glucoside and a variety of free amino acids. It has the effects of dispersing wind-heat, clearing the throat, removing rash, relieving itching, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

In spring and summer, Yun Duo likes to pick mint leaves, wash them and put them in a bowl, add rock sugar, the juice after crushing, and take a sip. It's really cool. That feeling is so beautiful. It is especially useful when you have a cold and cough. Peppermint has super reproductive ability, so Yun Duo only buys a small pot. I bought some more gadgets and wanted to go home quickly to do the experiment, so I turned around and took the peony flowers and went home.

When Yun Duo returned home, the young man sent the flowers locked the door, moved the peony and mint to the study, the curtains of the study were also drawn, and he stepped into the space. As soon as he entered the space, Yun Duo took a deep breath, and then he felt the pores all over his body opened up. The first breath that he exhaled, Yun Duo even felt that it was a turbid breath. Sticking out his tongue, Yun Duo felt a little taken for granted.

When I came to the small river, because I bought tools, I easily dug two pits, one large and one small. Yun Duo took the peony and mint out of the flower pots, put them in the two soil pits, and then sorted and flattened them. After admiring it, I felt that the flowers and mint were energetic. He poured some water, nodded in satisfaction, and went to the river to wash his hands. There is room.

Sitting on the sofa, Yun Duo thought about the morning experience, still feeling that everything was like a dream, so unreal. Fortunately, Yun Duo's nerves were relatively rough, and he soon accepted this mysterious experience.

Where can I get the seeds? This is a very headache. There are all kinds of seeds on Taobao, and Yunduo has also looked at Taobao, but it is said that they are all genetically modified. It seems that we have to go to the countryside to find some. Well, when you go out to travel, you should also try to run in the mountains to see if you can find something good.

Yun Duo shook his head, thinking too far, take your time. Yun Duo got up to make tea. As soon as he touched the teapot with his hand, he suddenly realized that he was silly. Now that there is room, the water in it can be taken out to drink. Yun Duo picked up the pot of boiling water at home and dashed into the space.

I drank the water from the creek before. It was very sweet and didn’t have a bad stomach. The clouds didn’t fill the creek immediately, but went upstream along the river. After all, the place was not very big, and it soon reached the end of the river. There was a small round water pool. Water came out from behind the gray barrier. It first flowed to the water pool and then formed a small river down. The clouds rejoiced, so that they would not be entangled with the river water and be bathed by myself. After all, she still wants to drink for her family,

Yunduo happily took the water, and when he got home, he began to boil the water in the kitchen. Soon, a cup of fragrant tea came out. Yunduo carefully took a sip, sweet, fragrant, and a strong tea fragrance reached his heart. , Yun Duo squinted his eyes pleasantly like a cat.
