Liu Su, 800 years old in Lianyungang, blooms like snow. Have you seen this ancient tree with a history of hundreds of years?

In the spring season, flowers are blooming everywhere, and the most worrying thing is the relatively old trees. China has a long history, and there are actually many centenarians.

There is a willow planted in Lianyungang during the Southern Song Dynasty, which has a history of more than 800 years. Surprisingly, such an old willow can still blossom. In general, the older a tree is, the more nutrients it may be unable to support and the possibility of flowering is very small. This 800-year-old willow still blooms on time in April. Although the flowering period of willow is relatively short, the snow scene in just ten days is unforgettable.

A century-old tree is very impressive. When I was a child, my hometown was not so vast. It was all roads. At that time, the only asphalt road was full of plane trees. Indus are big trees embraced by two people. Walking on the road in summer, you can hardly feel the scorching sun, because the branches and leaves of the phoenix trees on both sides will cover the sun.

When autumn comes, the fallen leaves turn yellow and wither, because they are all phoenix trees, and the time of falling leaves is the same. Almost overnight, the road was covered with thick leaves, golden yellow, as good as the scenery when ginkgo leaves landed. Because it is an old tree, even if all the leaves are gone and the branches are not slender, it gives people a strong sense of beauty against the cold winter.

Those two rows of buttonwood trees are my deepest memories of the scenery in my hometown. However, due to the needs of development, roads were widened and houses were built, and buttonwood trees were cut down. Since then, I have never seen such a dense shade on the side of the road that has changed a lot.

Many years ago, there were many trees over 100 years old, but later they were developed and built all over the country. Some trees are blocking the road of the building, and they will be uprooted or cut down. There are fewer and fewer old trees left now. Fortunately, everyone realizes that ancient trees need to be well protected. Even if there aren't many old trees left, as long as we continue to work hard and don't cut them down at will, it will certainly be endless.
