When peach blossom blooms, it is red as fire or white as flower of reeds. Since ancient times, peach blossom has been deeply loved by people. Literati have had an indissoluble bond with peach blossom, leaving numerous famous articles praising peach blossom. As early as 2500 years ago, in The Book of Songs, the first collection of poems in China, the peach blossom was praised with the verse of “peach blossoms are in full bloom, bright and red like fire”. The poems praising peach blossom in the past dynasties were various and colorful. WANG Wei’s “the grass in the rain is green as if it is dyed, and the peach blossom above the water is red as if it is going to burn” rendered the beautiful redness of peach blossom reflected by water. DU Fu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, expressed his love for peach blossom with “an ownerless peach blossom is in full bloom, should I love the dark red one or the light red one?” OUYANG Xiu’s “although deep red or light purple peach blossom is good-looking, but it withers easily after the east wind blowing” expressed his regret for the weakness and deficiency of peach blossom. And CUI Hu, a poet of Tang Dynasty, expressed the melancholy of re-visiting without meeting again by recalling the scene of the first meeting with the girl with the poem “I saw a girl in this door on the same day last year, her face was red reflected by bright peach blossom. When I come here today, I don’t know where she has gone, only peach blossom is still here, blooming in the spring breeze.”

Peach is not only beautiful in tree shape with sparse branches, plump flowers with gorgeous colors, but also has delicious fruit and rich nutrition. It is one of people’s most favorite fresh fruits. Peach is divided into honey peach, nectarine and flat peach. The nectarine varieties mainly planted in our garden are Jizao518, Jinshan Zaohong, Zijinhong No. 1 and other new superior varieties. Nectarines not only have glabrous peel with bright red and dazzling color, but also are delicious, fragrant, sweet and crisp. At the same time, it is especially resistant to storage and transportation. It will be available from May to June. Then some people may ask that what kind of peach is with oblate shape, dark yellow peel and sunken area at the top with a red halo. It is flat peach, known as “peach of immortality”. Isn’t it very strange? With the same leaves and flowers of the same color as ordinary peach trees, the fruits are very different. Oil flat peach is a more peculiar one, and it is a glabrous flat peach. Is it more delicious and convenient? There is no need to be afraid of itchy tomentum any more. So it is good for those who like eating peaches to take their families to our park and pick the peaches you like on a sunny day in the early summer.

In addition, I tell you a little common sense, that is peaches also can be processed into preserved peach, peach sauce, peach juice, dried peach and canned peach in addition to fresh-eating . Many parts of peach tree also have medicinal value, its roots, leaves, flowers, and kernel can be used as medicine with anti-tussive, activating blood, purge and other functions.

It can be said that a peach is full of treasure. So eat peaches often!
