Since 2000, the state has formulated and promulgated a series of policies to restore and protect wetlands, and the waterscape design close to nature and returning to nature in cities has also been loved and respected by people. These are the reasons that lead to the hot sale of aquatic plants. "The aquatic plant market is too hot this year. In February and March, more than 65,438+aquatic flowers produced by the people were sold out, and more than 10 orders were rejected. Some farmers have now begun to book orders for next year. " This is Zou Xiuwen, the manager of Beijing Shuitian Horticulture Company. This is the case in the north. What about the aquatic products market in the south? From Nanjing Lianyuan, Ningbo Lianyuan and other enterprises, we learned that the aquatic plants they produced, like Beijing, were sold out at the beginning of the year.

According to insiders, lotus, water lily, water hyacinth, LYSIMACHIA crassipes, barracuda, iris maculata, calamus maculata, reed maculata, houttuynia cordata and water candle are the top ten best-selling aquatic plants in recent 2000. Lotus, water lily, Pteris multifida, pike and chopped green onion are the most widely used aquatic plants in the greening projects in the north and south. Judging from the market demand, large and medium-sized lotus flowers with deep water tolerance have been in short supply. Most of the lotus flowers sold in the market are resistant to water depth of 0.8 ~ 1m, and there are few deep-water varieties with water depth above1.5 m. Wang Qichao, president of Lotus Branch of China Flower Association, said that wild deep-water lotus with water resistance of 1.8 to 2 meters has been found in Northeast China and Yunnan, and some enterprises are conducting artificial breeding, which I believe will be seen in the market in a few years. Deep water lotus will be a new bright spot in the future aquatic plant market. Ding, chairman of Nanjing Yilianyuan, is more optimistic about the market of small water lilies, cut water lilies and cut water lilies. In 2002, the company is committed to cultivating the above varieties.

Wang, manager of Huairou Garden in Beijing, believes that miniature potted plants are the best way to expand the sales of aquatic plants. A potted plant with floating leaves and emergent plants sold in Chencun, Guangzhou is very popular. He said: "Next year, people will try to introduce 100 potted plants with different leaf colors." Wang Qichao said that it is a shortcut to enter the family market to cultivate lotus varieties that can bloom all year round. The selected winter lotus series' Donghonghua',' Naoshuang' and' Sydney Honghua' can bloom all year round in the south, and the flowering period is about one week. In the north, you can also see lotus flowers on National Day, and the market prospect is very good. With the synchronous increase of output and usage, the price of aquatic plants has a downward trend. According to Zhang Qiujun, general manager of Ningbo Lianyuan, scallion, Pennisetum, pike, etc. have been reduced from tens of yuan/plant to one or two yuan/plant, but the prices of German iris and Yujiuhua, which have good landscape effect and are not easy to reproduce, have been high. He believes that the price of aquatic plants with increased usage and output will inevitably fall. Under the market regulation, the price of aquatic plants is becoming more and more reasonable.
