This is the outer suburb of W City, close to the mountains, and is even more remote than the botanical garden.

The nursery base is very wide, and it is often a forest area of ​​thousands of acres. It is full of green, and it is planted with finished trees of different types, years and quality, row after row, and no one can see at a glance.

Ye Han followed the two to the osmanthus base.

The white plastic on the top blocks the bright light, similar to a greenhouse, and there are irrigation facilities inside, which look very formal.

The boss here is often away, and the manager named Luo is usually in charge.

He had dealt with Wang Hongnian several times, but had never seen Ye Han before, so he took a few more glances at him.

Oh. She looks so pretty. I heard that she is still Lao Wang’s leader, and she is very young.

I heard that I would enter hundreds of finished trees this time, so I am definitely a big customer.

"The weather is hot this year, and the osmanthus flowers in the base are not blooming. It is estimated that the end of the month. Now I come here to choose it. If it is late, it will affect the flowering period."

The appropriate temperature for osmanthus to bloom is around 17c-23c, and the flowering period lasts from mid-September to late October. However, if the flowering period continues to encounter sunny days and the temperature is relatively high, the opening time will be postponed later.

Actually, it’s a bit late to choose now. After all, transplanting will damage the trees, but nursery bases need to make money, so of course, it’s better to say it.

Superintendent Luo took them to visit two or three rows of osmanthus trees. Seeing that Ye Han didn't say anything, he took the initiative to ask: "What does the leader want?

Because our osmanthus tree grows slowly, its price is higher than other trees, and those with a diameter of more than 20 cm are tens of thousands. Generally, it is 12-16 cm.

For example, this tree has a height of 3 meters, a breast diameter of 14 cm, a crown width of 3 meters, and a market price of 1,600 per tree."

"There is also this tree, 4 meters high, 16 cm inches in breast diameter, 3 meters inches in crown width, 18 cm inches in ground diameter. Look at this appearance, the crown shape is full and round, and the market price is 2,800 per tree.

Whatever you want can give you a discount.”

Ye Han followed behind, stopping from time to time to observe their tree shapes and leaf shapes to determine their varieties.

Osmanthus is generally divided into four categories: dangu, goldengu, silvergu and four-season osmanthus.

As the name suggests, the flowers are darker in color, mostly orange-yellow or orange-red, and a few are vermilion red, with high ornamental value and are also the most expensive.

Golden osmanthus, the flowers are yellow or light yellow, and they have a golden feeling. It is most common on weekdays, with a strong fragrance of flowers, and the fragrance that surrounds ten miles refers to golden osmanthus.

The colors of silver osmanthus are mainly white and yellow-white. A few are light yellow, with a lighter fragrance and less cultivation.

Osmanthus can bloom in all seasons, except when the light is strong in midsummer. Because it blooms many times, although the fragrance is lighter, it is also very popular among everyone. 1

Ye Han planned to plant more golden osmanthus with strong aroma on both sides of the road, and more golden osmanthus in the osmanthus garden, and match other types to make it more ornamental.

After thinking about the plan, she asked Wang Hongnian and his wife to choose osmanthus trees with a height of more than 4 meters, a breast diameter of more than 15 cm, a large crown and a good quality.

The estimated average price will be above 2,500 yuan.

Because golden gui is the most common, without deliberately identifying it, Ye Han gave it to the two of them to choose and mark it; while she herself chose the corresponding guinea varieties.

For the same quality, the elixir must be above 3,500 yuan, and the quantity is also small.

Just like this, Ye Han, Wang Hongnian and others were selected one by one, and they were getting deeper and deeper.

Then, at the end of the nursery, near the back mountain, she saw a very large osmanthus tree.

It is more than 7 meters tall, much taller than the osmanthus tree next to it, with a breast diameter of more than 50 cm. Unlike other osmanthus trees, it has a single trunk, but is coiled and forked, with six or seven branches, full inner chamber and extending outward, with an extension of more than eight meters.

Very big.

The coverage area is more than 100 square meters, and it feels like a tree occupying a piece of area, with its branches everywhere.

But it is not in very good condition.

The base of the tree below has been carbonized, and large holes have decayed in the center of the xylem, the bark is slightly black, at least one-third of the canopy and branches are drying, and the leaves are sparse.

It was originally a giant umbrella that covered the sky and the sun, but now only half of the shed bones remain, which contrasts sharply with the full crown-shaped osmanthus tree I just saw.

Ye Han was originally surprised by its giganticity, but he frowned again when he saw this state.

However, it is obvious that some professionals have taken protective measures for this ancient osmanthus tree, and shaded the top of it. At the same time, sprinkler irrigation equipment is built on the dry main branches, which will automatically spray out water mist every once in a while to keep the moisture on the branches.

Unfortunately, the effect doesn't seem to be very good.

She walked forward and saw the protection sign on the trunk.

Name: Dangui

Belongs to:Aleuraceae,Aleuraceae

Tree age: more than 260 years

Grade: Second-level ancient trees, W city protected trees

It's been more than 260 years, no wonder it's so big.

And this variety... Ye Han carefully observed its leaves and bark, and it seemed to be the precious variety among the olives - Zhuangyuanhong.

Before there was time to observe carefully, Director Luo came over.

"Oh, this osmanthus tree is probably not very good. Some time ago, experts came to rescue and built a lot of equipment, but several months have passed, and it is still the case."

Ye Han looked at the surrounding mountains and forests: "How did this osmanthus tree grow here?"

Manager Luo: "This is a long story."

Anyway, there are not many people at the base today, so he just needs to entertain this big customer. Manager Luo simply opened his mouth, "This osmanthus tree was originally bought by the boss from a village 20 years ago.

It should have been 2002 and 2003. The price of osmanthus was very high, and the laws were not sound at that time. Many people went to old villages like crazy to buy osmanthus trees. The boss happened to catch up with this wave.

This tree was originally planted on the village in the countryside, and the villagers sold it for a total of 300,000 yuan."

"The 300,000 yuan at that time was really valuable, but it was indeed profitable, so the boss bought it and planted it here. Maybe it was because he was a little unacceptable after transplanting. This osmanthus tree didn't recover for a long time and his appearance was not so good.

The boss thought about raising it for two years before selling it, and when the price rose, he could make more money. The next year, a customer bid 500,000 and he didn't sell it. Now he regretted it so much that his intestines were blushed.

Because later people raised large quantities of osmanthus trees, and when there were too many osmanthus trees, they became worthless. The government began to strictly manage these ancient trees and listed them without trading.

The boss then realized that this was an illegal act. He quickly reported it to the government before listing and admitted his mistakes honestly. Because he had a good attitude towards admitting his mistakes, and the ancient tree did not suffer any destructive damage. He was fined some money, so he would be revealed."

Manager Luo sighed, "The boss has also lost his wife and soldiers. He has never tried these things again and has honestly opened this nursery base."

This osmanthus tree was also a disaster. The discomfort after transplanting and the age of various reasons, gradually became what it looks like today.

Ye Han certainly disagrees from the perspective of plants.

But she is not easy to argue about it. After all, every era has its own background. Things have passed, so it is better to see how to save it.

She used gold fingers to this cinnamon tree.

Dangui: "I remember that I was a flower at the beginning of the village, and the fragrance spreads ten miles away. Who killed thousands of swords moved me here! Cough cough... It's useless for you to water like this, I can't absorb much at all."

At present, its root system has shown signs of darkening and its absorption capacity has decreased. The root system must be restored first, otherwise it will be useless if you water it more.

Ye Han saw that there were personnel from the ancient tree protection department that loosened the surrounding soil, and may have maintained the root system for a certain amount, but the effect was not obvious.

For this ancient tree that cannot be moved easily, we cannot take drastic and fierce measures, and we can only restore it bit by bit.

If you use plant nutrient solution to slowly nourish it and carefully cultivate it, you can definitely save the other party.

At least its branches did not break like the peach tree, and they were protected in time.

Thinking of the peach tree, Ye Han suddenly thought of a possibility, so he asked the system: "Does this cinnamon tree meet the s-level plant judgment criteria?"

Dangui is a rare osmanthus, and it is also the most precious species among them - Zhuangyuanhong.

Zhuangyuanhong is the first of the top ten precious varieties of osmanthus. It has been rated as a high-quality variety among all osmanthus by experts, with high appreciation and scientific value.2

In addition, the tree is more than 260 years old, which is very rare. Overall, it is completely in line with the relatively rare and rare categories described in S-level.

System: "The judgment result is close to S level."

Ye Han understood that judging from its current quality and condition, it must be cultivated to meet the collection standards.

But it is indeed S-level!

Ye Han's apricot eyes were filled with shallow water waves, and the task that had no clue suddenly had a breakthrough, which was undoubtedly worthy of joy.

What she has to do now is to apply to move this olive tree into Huajianji for protection.

This is also a good thing for ancient trees.

Ye Han: "Can you contact your boss? I want to move this cinnamon tree into the botanical garden to cultivate. If possible, I will apply to the relevant department immediately."

Manager Luo was shocked: "Ah?"

Didn’t you come to introduce the osmanthus tree? Why did you like this half-dead ancient tree?

He turned his gaze to the olive tree again and couldn't help but shake his head.

They are all so old that they can't be sold, alas.

In fact, the boss doesn't like this tree, which means his failed investment. He was "pitted" by 300,000 yuan, and he almost got into the bureau. Who wouldn't be disgusted?

And every time I see it, I think of my actions that I didn’t sell for 500,000 yuan, and I regretted it.

Manager Luo gritted his teeth: "Okay, I'll talk to the boss. But the procedures for relocation of ancient trees are quite troublesome..."

Ye Han nodded: "I understand."

Submitting application reports and related materials is only a preliminary stage. The gardening authority must also organize on-site inspections and evaluate the relocation site.
