It is worth a look for those who don’t know about it. 1. The flower of wealth
We always call peony the flower of wealth, so why is peony the flower of wealth? Now, Sister Rong will tell me my opinion.
The reason why peony is called the flower of wealth: When the peony blooms, it is colorful and magnificent, giving people a feeling of wealth from its temperament. This is based on the shape, color and temperament of peonies. In addition, people in the Sui and Tang Dynasties liked peonies very much, especially the royal palaces and wealthy families who liked to cultivate peonies. Then it became popular among the people, so Bai Juyi once said in a poem, "Twenty days after the flowers bloom and fall, everyone in the city will be crazy." ".
In the Song Dynasty, Zhou Dunyi wrote in his "Love of Lotus" that "peony is the richest flower among flowers", so people also called peonies the flower of wealth.
Peony is the flower of wealth: When it comes to peony being the flower of wealth, Sister Rong will think of peonies appearing in many famous paintings, and the names of many of the paintings are "Flowers Blooming for Fortune" .
Other times, magnolias, begonias, peonies, and osmanthus are combined together, which also has the meaning of "wealth in the jade hall", that is, the beautiful meaning of wealth and splendor in bloom. In addition, winter jasmine flowers will be added behind the crabapple flowers, which also has the reputation of "spring wealth in the Yutang". Therefore, there are also many florists who like to grow peonies at home. 2. National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance
When peonies bloom, they are graceful, magnificent and nationally beautiful and fragrant, so they are known as the "King of Flowers". Why is the peony flower said to be the beauty and fragrance of the country? In fact, there is a short story in it. What is it?
The origin of the national beauty and heavenly fragrance: Emperor Wenzong of the Tang Dynasty once praised his beloved concubine at a flower viewing banquet, "the national beauty makes you drink in the morning, and the fragrance of the sky dyes her clothes at night." These two lines of poetry are used to describe peonies, so peonies also have the reputation of "national beauty and heavenly fragrance".
Because in the Tang Dynasty, everyone from the palace officials to the common people loved peonies. So every time peonies bloom, people go to enjoy them. Therefore, there is Liu Yuxi’s poem “Only peonies are the true national beauty, and they move the capital when they bloom.” 3. Not afraid of the powerful
When it comes to peonies not afraid of the powerful, we have to talk about the burnt bone peony in Luoyang. At first, because of the cold weather, Empress Wu Zetian ordered all flowers to bloom. Only peonies did not bloom in the cold season, but peonies were not afraid of the powerful, so they were demoted to Luoyang.
Later, when Wu Zetian went to Luoyang, she saw the peonies blooming so big and brightly that she was so angry that she sent people to burn the peonies. After being burned by fire, peonies bloom more vividly. Therefore, peonies are also called burnt bone peonies. This incident shows that Peony is not afraid of powerful people, so many people say that Peony is honest and trustworthy. 4. Peonies of different colors have different meanings and symbols
