Chen Fei said: "The weather is too hot, sweat is dripping down, I come out very early every day, start work at 5 o'clock, and try to avoid it at noon." I'm in charge of the range from Qinchuan Avenue to Jiangcheng Avenue, and I basically have to run my area every day. ”

The continuous high temperature is extremely unfavorable to the growth of landscaping plants, if there is a continuous high temperature above 35 °C, the greening plants are prone to water loss, burns, dryness and other phenomena. To this end, Chen Fei introduced: "Add shade nets to plants that do not protect from the sun, and use a water truck to water all plants and trees every night. ”

After finishing a busy place, Chen Fei didn't stop for a moment, and hurried to the next stop. He pointed to the street trees in the second row and said: "Because this is the street tree in the second row, it is not convenient for the sprinkler to water it, so we added a drip bag to better help it water and cool down." ”

According to the staff of Hanyang Garden, at present, more than 2,000 drip irrigation bags have been hung in the jurisdiction, and 24 green sprinkler trucks work at staggered times in the morning and evening every day, working overtime to water and cool down the street trees and park green belts, and strive to ensure that the city's green plants spend the summer safely. Liu Fan, deputy captain of the landscaping team of Hanyang District, Wuhan City, said: "After the temperature is high, the transpiration of plant leaves is too large, similar to excessive sweating, sometimes plants are short of water, and the surface is also short of water, we need to replenish water in time to achieve the transpiration balance of trees." The front-line workers in the hot weather are very hard, and Hanyang Garden has also distributed some mineral water and other cooling materials to the front-line workers. ”

Let us praise these green workers who stick to the high temperature, it is their hard work that makes the city green.
