Not only the osmanthus roll in Jiuxi Scenic Area, but also the golden osmanthus by Xianghu Lake has floated the fragrance of osmanthus, which is located in the east of the Yaoying Bridge on Meishan Road.
It is understood that the osmanthus in Xianghu Lake is relatively evenly distributed, and the varieties mainly include golden osmanthus, silver osmanthus and dangui. Jin Guisheng has a strong aroma, and the location is concentrated in the area of Meishan Road; The osmanthus is more ornamental, orange-red is more eye-catching, and is mainly distributed in front of the Yang Causeway, near the stones of the cross-lake bridge and in the World Tourism Expo.

"I still smell the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, but when I pass by the Fengtan Road subway station, I find that the purple magnolia that has bloomed in spring has bloomed again." Mr. Huang provided us with information about magnolia flowers.
Why does the magnolia bloom twice? Hangzhou garden experts explained that the second flowering of magnolia is not uncommon, which is mainly related to the variety, some varieties have double flowering, can bloom two or three times a year, such as the red magnolia with a similar color to the purple magnolia can bloom twice, the difference is that the purple magnolia petals are purple inside and out, and the red magnolia petals are purple on one side and pink and white on the other: "If well managed, the purple magnolia will also bloom in early autumn." Mr. Huang said that this plant, probably mistakenly thought that spring had arrived, the right temperature, humidity and rain, and the recent series of influences gave it a wrong signal, so it bloomed a second time. ”
