Alpine rhododendron originally grew up in the high mountains, and it felt that only the tone of the old mountain stone tree in the half garden could hold its magnificence.
According to the introduction, the half garden is located in the "horticultural village" of Xiaxi in Changzhou, (previously published in "Huaye": half mountain, half water and half pastoral) according to the original mountain stone pond to build the current garden. I have always felt that this garden is too MAN, a large amount of Taishan stone, stacked slopes, mountain stone crevices, planted pine, plum, maple, etc., there is a water system to the top, forming a waterfall feeling. A boardwalk was built along the edge with old stone strips.
Several alpine rhododendrons are arranged under pine trees, among the rocks.
The embellishment of the flowers immediately softened the handsomeness of the mountain stone.
It seems that it grew up here, and with the arrival of spring, it blooms and blooms.
There are not many flowers, and clever arrangement is the most important.
Between the rocks and the old trunks loomed a cluster of pink.
Originally a large and gorgeous alpine cuckoo, it suddenly became fresh and pleasant.
There are many stones in the half garden, and the trail can only be narrowly passed through the stones.
The green moss next to the steps, the southern bamboo and moss grass planted in the stone cracks, and a few maple trees are particularly vibrant colors in spring.
Just in the corner dotted a cluster of alpine cuckoos, not ostentatious and unobtrusive, suddenly saw, but jumped with surprise.
Further ahead, there is a Luohan pine, which is paired with mountain stones, like a giant bonsai. Exquisite and atmospheric, several alpine rhododendrons arranged here have not yet reached their full blooming stage, and one cluster is blooming, just right.
In the past, when watching the azalea exhibition, it was always arranged in layers and full, and the visual shock was there, but it was difficult to be moved.
Without the stacking of natural backgrounds, it is difficult to reflect the posture and temperament of the plants themselves.
Therefore, it is necessary to have stones and trees to create its original growth environment.
With the surrounding background,
Sometimes, it only takes one or two trees to have an effect.
About Alpine Rhododendron:
Alpine rhododendron originated in China, more than 100 years ago was introduced to Europe, highly respected, there is a saying called "no crane no garden", in the Courtyard of Europe, it is roughly indispensable to the cuckoo.
This time the horticultural village, the alpine rhododendron arrangement of the half garden, the hippo garden, and the Shifang garden, all come from the "red plum gardening", anyway, from Germany across the ocean. Originally, these azaleas were set up for the Chelsea Flower Show, but this is not, due to the impact of the epidemic, the Chelsea Flower Show was cancelled!
That's why we're lucky enough to see these beautiful and expensive alpine azaleas in the country. In other words, several of our yards are already beautiful and have their own characteristics. This time, in order to make the alpine rhododendron more beautifully displayed, the owners of each garden also showed their own magic, using the characteristics of their own yard to skillfully arrange and match the alpine rhododendron.
This is the first "Garden Rhododendron Exhibition" in China.
Not to see the flowers!
It's to see how the alpine cuckoo is arranged in the garden.
Writing here, I can't help but insert a few photos of the wisteria of the old tree in the half garden, which is so beautiful. Thanks for a few days.
