Peach Blossom
In many people's minds, peach blossoms mark the real arrival of spring. In Nanjing, peach
trees are widely cultivated. The flowering period of peach blossoms lasts from one to one
and a half months.
The "Peach Blossom Island" of the Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences covers an
area of 100 mu, where more than 4,000 peach trees are planted.
Baima Park is a garden that features peach blossoms. As the temperature rises, the 10,000
peach trees in the park enter their flowering period, lasting until the end of April.
Plum Blossom
Meihuashan is a famous plum mountain
in China, where many Chinese flower
varieties such as Green Cricket are
already in full bloom. Elsewhere, in Xu-
anwu Lake Park, more than 2,000 plum
trees have been gradually blooming.
