Jinjiang genuine 194
On the left and right sides of the spherical rotating display cabinet, there is a huge specimen of Victoria amazonica leaf dipped.
The diameter of each statue is over 3.3 meters and they are sealed in a round glass booth about 1 meter high. They are lifelike and arouse everyone's amazement.
Especially now that it is March and the temperature is low, the Victoria amazonica in the artificial lake has not yet been planted. Some tourists who have never seen it before were filled with surprise and hurried forward to take pictures.
The two Victoria amazonica leaves are really too big. The surface area of a single leaf is about 9 square meters, which is equivalent to the size of a study room or bathroom. They are like a round green boat, floating in the solution, one right side up and one upside down, bringing a shocking visual effect.
Soon, a large crowd of tourists gathered around.
“This is the Victoria amazonica leaf that broke the Guinness record!”
"Both?"
"Both. One has a diameter of 3.38 meters and the other has a diameter of 3.42."
"It's well preserved, not damaged at all."
"This side shows the front side, and the other side shows the back side."
"So the back of the Victoria amazonica leaf looks like this. The thick radial veins are as dense as a spider web. No wonder they can hold up the entire leaf."
"Look at the fluff floating on the stems. They are so vivid, just like when they were alive!"
“It’s great to be able to preserve it in this way.”
"I immediately understood the significance of the specimen's existence."
Even when the artificial lake is not open for viewing, visitors to Huajianji can still enjoy the unique scenery through the Victoria amazonica leaf specimens.
At the same time, the symbolic Victoria amazonica leaves are preserved permanently as a record.
Perhaps this is the meaning of the specimen's existence.
The sound of taking photos was continuous all around, and the extended camera lenses kept zooming in to capture the leaves floating on the sealed booth from all angles.
It is definitely worth the trip to see the only two Victoria amazonica specimens in the country, no, the world, with a diameter of more than 3.3 meters.
Yao Bing and the other person walked out from the crowd and came to the outskirts of the exhibition hall.
This is the combined specimen area, where you can see various specimen combinations. It is both a science and an art.
She saw the four gentlemen, 'plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum', placed in the same specimen frame, each with its own merits.
Specimens of the world's four major alpine flowers: rhododendron, meconopsis, primrose and gentian are also placed together. Their petals are soaked in liquid, the whole plant is upright and the colors are bright.
Except for the alpine rhododendron, Yao Bing was unfamiliar with the other three plants, but that did not prevent her from appreciating the beauty of these alpine flowers.
"The Meconopsis is looking so beautiful." Yao Bing exclaimed in a low voice, and Tan Shuangshuang also came over.
The container contains dreamy blue flowers with thin, slightly wrinkled petals that droop slightly downwards, and slender, thorny stems that look delicate and charming.
It is hard to imagine that it would grow in such a cold alpine environment.
The explanation sounded at the right time: "Meconopsis is a general term for plants of the Papaveraceae family and the genus Meconopsis. It is a star species among many alpine plants in the Himalayas and is called the 'Himalayan blue poppy' by Europeans.
Its flowers are large and colorful, and are distributed in high mountain bushes or gravel beaches at an altitude of 3,000-5,500 meters. It is known as the "flower closest to the sky." ①
It is worthy of being called the 'flower closest to the sky', its color is as pure as the sky.
Further ahead, the plant specimens of Buddhism’s “Five Trees and Six Flowers” were made into a separate scene.
The five trees are the fig tree, the indigo tree, the palm leaf, the betel nut, and the sugar palm; the six flowers are the lotus, the crinum, the turmeric flower, the yellow Myanmar osmanthus, the frangipani, and the ground lily.
The combination is quite Zen.
There is also a combination of wax leaf specimens made from China's eight famous living fossil tree species: Ginkgo, Metasequoia, Cathaya, Chinese Glyptostroboides, Davidia involucrata, Camellia chrysantha, Golden Larch and Cicadae Subulata.
They all have a long history and beautiful leaf shapes. In autumn and winter, they will show different colors, which are pleasing to the eye when placed together.
"Shuangshuang, look across here—the wishing bottle hanging in the air!"
"Let's go and take a look."
Yao Bing and the other person came to the opposite side of the combined specimen area. When they looked up, they saw bottles of various sizes hanging in the air like stars, as if they were traveling through a transparent crystal curtain.
The bottles contain seeds of nationally protected plants and S-level plants, as well as culture bottles of orchid plants, displaying precious germplasm resources in front of tourists for everyone to understand.
Yao Bing raised his hand and picked up a small bottle with a label on it. It contained the seeds of the ginkgo tree - ginkgo nuts, which were white and round and had medicinal value.
I took another small bottle and checked it. It turned out to be the pine cone of the golden pine. It was in a tower shape with open scales on the surface. It looked very light after drying.
The lotus seeds of the thousand-petal lotus look as plump and round as fresh ones.
"This is... the capsule of Dendrobium officinale." It was the first time Yao Bing had seen this long pear-shaped fruit. He looked at the note on the label: "The capsule contains hundreds of thousands of powdered seeds."
It’s amazing that one fruit can contain such a large number.
"Shuangshuang, come and look at this, it's a peach pit from the peach tree!"
The two of them leaned in to look at the two kernels in the bottle. They looked like smaller walnuts with light-colored lines all over them. They were a little larger than ordinary peach kernels and looked delicate and beautiful.
As expected of the Young Master of Peach, the seeds he produces are larger than normal ones.
Yao Bing fiddled with the bottle back and forth, feeling extremely fond of it. If possible, he really wanted to take it away.
Further ahead, there are larger cultivation bottles containing culture medium, in which seven or eight orchid seedlings are growing.
They have just sprouted, and are only the size of a fingernail, very adorable.
Everyone who saw it was surprised, as it was the first time they saw newly grown orchid seedlings.
It is only two centimeters high, with one or two tender leaves growing on the top. It has not yet fully grown. The tiny seedlings are distributed in the culture bottle, trying hard to absorb nutrients.
"What kind of orchid is this? I want to grow one!"
"Mine is Paphiopedilum apricotum."
"What I have marked here is Paphiopedilum rigidum, it's different."
"It's different. This bottle contains Darwinia orchid seedlings."
"They're so small now that they look about the same."
"There are larger seedlings on the left, in their own bottles."
"Look here, there's a little garlic sprout next to the orchid."
"Where, where? Ah, I see it!"
"Help, this is so cute, a tiny garlic, is it natural?"
"This orchid is called Garlic Orchid, and 'garlic' is its pseudobulb."
"Single garlic orchid, remember, I will grow one when I get back."
"Huajianji has artificial cultivation, buy directly from the mini program. Orchids are delicate, and other orchids cannot be kept alive if bought."
"OK, I'll place the order in a moment."
The garlic orchid, originally not an orchid appreciated by the general public, became very popular due to its blooming in patches in the [Secret Orchid Realm] and is now loved by more and more tourists.
I like its garlic-like pseudobulb, its purple flowers, and its lip with a circle of 'small thorns' on the edge, which is its unique feature.
Ye Han was happy to see this happen.
When she asked with her golden finger, the garlic orchid stood up and shook its leaves happily: "People like my garlic, and today many people praised me for being special!"
It moved its pseudobulb and said, "Garlic is plump and cute."
Ye Han couldn't help laughing and touched its leaves. "Are you not envious of the slender stems of other orchids?"
Du Suanlan said proudly, "I'm not envious, Du Suanlan is the most beautiful."
Ye Han looked at it and curved his eyes.
Perhaps the purpose of Huajianji’s existence is to let everyone know the characteristics of different plants and appreciate their unique beauty.
…
Yao Bing and his friend took photo after photo, including close-ups of the wishing bottle hanging in the air and the seeds inside, and they were in great spirits.
Most of the seeds here are seeds of well-known star plants, but we have never learned about them in this way before.
But this method is undoubtedly very effective. Tourists can learn while observing, which brings them endless novelty.
The screen on the side of the orchid culture medium focuses on the concepts of "sexual reproduction" and "genetic diversity", and is a display of Huajianji's scientific research results.
Advanced laboratories and high-end instruments, numerous scientific researchers, tens of thousands of culture bottles for orchid cultivation, and a well-equipped experimental base...all demonstrate Huajianji's strong scientific research capabilities.
"We have now cultivated more than 100 species of rare orchids, and have carried out batch cultivation of more than 20 nationally protected orchids, simulating the symbiosis between orchid seeds and fungi through culture media..."
Hua Jian Ji is really amazing.
Not only has it achieved national top ranking in the creation of botanical gardens, promotion of peripheral products, and desert greening, but it has also made such amazing achievements in scientific research.
The last exhibition hall is the interactive experience area, which is also the area that Yao Bing and his friend are looking forward to.
Huajianji did not disappoint them. As soon as they entered, they felt the full sense of technology.
The entire exhibition hall is shaped like a spaceship, with bright lights in the white cabin and the operating table in the front is the 'Experience Center'.
Beams of cosmic rays swept through the viewing window, changing from light to dark, and an asteroid belt surrounded by meteorites appeared outside the space.
A huge meteorite floated overhead, casting a shadow. The spacecraft seemed to be traveling inside the Kuiper Belt at the edge of the solar system and was about to fly out of the solar system.
"Oh My God."
“So cool!”
"We've driven away from the biggest meteorite. Wow, it's pretty thrilling to watch."
“There’s more ahead.”
"Be careful, don't get too close."
Yao Bing and other tourists walked and observed, and in an instant they seemed to have entered a science fiction world.
"Look, here is the logbook!
Purpose of the flight: To bring seeds of rare and protected plants from Earth into space, using cosmic rays to stimulate the potential for genetic variation and continue species diversity.
"Wow--!!"
"Awesome, even the details are so well done."
"Seeds carried: National first-class protected plants - Thuja sutchuenensis, Parashorea chinensis, Metasequoia glyptostroboides, Chinese cycads, Dabie Mountain five-needle pine, Baishanzu fir..."
Yao Bing also walked forward to observe together. In addition to this navigation log, there were also historical launch records on one side.
In 1999, Shenzhou-1 was launched into space, carrying active bacterial strains and seeds of crops such as green peppers, watermelons, corn, and barley.
In 2001, Shenzhou II was launched into space, carrying two general-purpose space biological incubators, containing a total of 25 species of animals, plants and cell tissues of 19 categories, as well as vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbages, and greens, totaling 20,000 high-quality seeds.
In 2002, Shenzhou III was launched into space, carrying seedless test tube grape seedlings, tree plum, cold-covered dianthus, orchid and other plant seeds.
In 2011, Tiangong-1 carried the seeds of the 'Earth's only child', the Putuo hornbeam, into space.
In 2012, Shenzhou 9 was launched into space, carrying seeds of plants such as Yunnan Pu'er tea, rhododendron, and ancient yew trees.
Since my country first sent plant seeds into space, there have been more than 30 return missions, over 200 new varieties have been approved and cultivated, with a total planting area of more than 2.4 million hectares.
As of today, China ranks first in the world in terms of the number of varieties bred and the scope of their promotion and application.
When Yao Bing and his companion saw this "space travel log" for the first time, they felt an indescribable shock in their hearts.
It turns out that a long time ago, the country had made major moves in biodiversity, leveraging the power of space to achieve genetic breakthroughs.
Moreover, many of the plants in it are well-known, including rare orchids, large tree rhododendrons, ancient yew trees, Putuo hornbeams, and thousand-year-old lotus seeds. They are all rare plants that have been to space.
Almost all of the above species can be found in the flower collection.
Ye Han linked the virtual spaceship background with the country's "space breeding" policy, connecting technology with modern times, history with the future, without any awkwardness.
Bring a perfect science popularization and publicity.
As the entrance opened, more and more tourists came behind, and Yao Bing and his companions seized the opportunity to experience the interactive projects.
Specimen task area.
She sat in a chair in the operating area, which automatically rose and adjusted its direction, and even vibrated according to the arrangement of meteorites, providing a realistic experience.
The transparent glass gradually rose up from the outside, forming a closed state, and the screen in front of me showed the words:
【C01 Space Base issued a document to build a specimen museum on asteroid XXX. This initiative requires the joint efforts of all spacecraft crew members.
Now please choose a plant and make a specimen of it. 】
Yao Bing chose the alpine flower - Meconopsis, which she was deeply impressed by.
The next step is to prepare the immersion specimen according to the steps on the screen.
[The specimen is ready. Please draw a hand-drawn picture to record the exhibition. 】
Just like before, your fingers only need to follow the movement of the light spot, which is a contactless interaction.
【Please add a description for the specimen, and the instrument will automatically record your voice. 】
An introduction to Meconopsis appears on the screen, just one or two short sentences. Just read it aloud.
[The specimen of 'Meconopsis' has been prepared and stored in the specimen museum. Thank you for your contribution to the space base. 】
The whole process takes about 5 minutes, but it can bring you an extraordinary sense of accomplishment.
In the science fiction scene, the specimen museum is located on an asteroid. The scenery is lifelike and the surrounding environment seems to be real.
Yao Bing's works are included in the exhibition hall and can be viewed at any time.
At the same time, after a series of operations, Yao Bing's understanding of Meconopsis has become more and more in-depth, achieving the effect of popular science.
The layout of the answering area on the other side is basically similar to that of the first floor.
Points are accumulated, and the final ranking is the sum of the two points.
In this way, everyone will participate more enthusiastically, and there will be new changes in the rankings. Perhaps the opportunity for a turnaround is right in front of us!
When Yao Bing and Tan Shuangshuang came out after experiencing a project each, they found that the exhibition hall was already crowded with exclamations everywhere and people were lining up to experience the projects.
There are also many tourists visiting the other introductory halls, micro-plant observation areas, ecosystem specimen walls, and immersion specimen areas.
This kind of scene was within their expectations.
The specimen museum at Huajianji is so well built, one can imagine how popular it will be in the future.
Fortunately, they had obtained an exclusive annual pass and could visit in advance at any time.
The opening of the specimen museum naturally sparked heated discussions.
From the old Hainan Huanghuali wood in the lobby that is 4.3 meters long and weighs 425 kilograms, to the world under the microscope, the magnificent specimen wall, the beautiful butterfly specimens; to the seed wishing bottle, the huge Victoria amazonica leaf specimens; to the immersive interactive experience area...
Every topic is enough to bring heat.
Related media reports appeared on major platforms, triggering widespread discussion.
"Old Hainan Huanghuali wood worth tens of millions of yuan appeared in the Huajianji Museum, and it is rumored that it was purchased from a private collector!" - A certain traffic marketing account.
"The Victoria amazonica specimen that won the Guinness World Record was exhibited for the first time at the Huajianji Specimen Museum today. Visitors on site took photos one after another and the response was enthusiastic." - Local media in W City and other places.
"High-tech exhibition hall, interactive experience, and an inventory of the black technology that appeared in Huajianji." - Digital Media.
"The opening of the Huajianji Herbarium is a major breakthrough in improving people's understanding of plant specimens by stimulating their interest." - Xinhua X and other official media.
"Rare orchid species survive! The Huajian Collection Museum exhibits more than 20 naturally bred orchids, with outstanding scientific research results." - Chinese Academy of Sciences/Research Organization.
"Why did Huajianji Botanical Garden open its specimen museum at this time? What impact will this move bring? Let's take you into the birth of a super IP." - Financial report.
After publicity from various media, marketing accounts, and bloggers, #花间集|植本馆# became a hot topic, which was the popularity brought by the entire public.
“It’s really eye-opening. Every exhibition hall opened my eyes.”
"I'd like to know the value of that Hainan Huanghuali tree. It's not an exaggeration to say it's the treasure of the museum, right?"
"I asked a local friend, and he said it would cost at least 12 million, and it might not be available. You don't see such a big piece anymore."
"And it's in pretty good condition. Your friend's price is a bit conservative considering its condition."
"Hiss, is this still conservative?"
"Hua Jian Ji = rich and powerful, old fans are no longer surprised."
"The first time I saw a sea coconut, my bestie said it was as big as her butt, hahahaha."
"Indeed... a strange shape."
"It's fun to visit the herbarium. The plant specimens are so interesting."
"What impressed me most was the palm leaf, which took 50 years to sharpen its sword and bloomed magnificently before death."
"Me too. I'll always remember how it looked when it bloomed."
"The butterfly specimens are so beautiful. I took so many photos of them."
"I have never seen so many butterflies and so many specimens. It is really worth the trip."
"Especially the soaked specimens, they look exactly the same as when they were alive!"
"Have you been to the experience area? I think the experience area in the specimen museum is better than the one on the first floor!"
"Yes, yes, the asteroid belt is so realistic that it makes me worry about meteorite impact (laughing and crying)."
"The most important thing is that this background is not set randomly, but can be linked with space breeding. It's absolutely amazing!"
"When I saw the flight logs and historical flight records, I was completely shocked. Isn't this too powerful? The details are linked together."
"Also, the interactive experience is to build a specimen museum in the space base, which constitutes the entire series of tasks!"
"I have to applaud the conception of Hua Jian Ji."
"I brought a foreign friend to visit. It was his first time here and he couldn't stop talking the whole time."
"Stop talking, I did too (covering my face). I've been there many times."
"Huajianji always brings people a sense of novelty. I would find other science museums boring, but I can stay in Huajianji for a whole day."
"Promise me that you will go to the specimen museum in Huajianji. It will be more effective if you cooperate with the explanation!"
The Science and Technology Museum in Huajianji has received extremely high reviews on the Internet. There are ten exhibition halls on the first and second floors, and each of them is unique.
A national benchmark exhibition hall.
The popular science method is flexible, cultivating the public's interest and sense of novelty, leading people to experience the wonder of plants in an immersive way, better understand plants, and cultivate awareness of plant protection in a subtle way.
The popular science effect is a hundred times greater than that of other pavilions and has influenced millions of visitors.
The publication of the upper and lower volumes of "Plant Atlas" has also had a huge impact on young people. In conjunction with the Science and Technology Museum, it has made the awareness of protecting plants deeply rooted in people's hearts.
No other botanical garden has such a broad and far-reaching influence as Huajianji.
Therefore, in April, Huajianji Botanical Garden was listed as a "Science Popularization Demonstration Zone" by the state, calling on botanical gardens across the country to learn from it.
It has been included in the list of national science popularization education bases, on par with national botanical gardens.
Following the 4A-level scenic spot, Huajianji once again won a heavyweight honor and its reputation soared.
Looking at the social feedback and the positive impact it has brought, Ye Han feels that the purpose of establishing the specimen museum has been achieved and the popular science effect has been good.
Now that the tropical rainforest has been completed, the cable car route, which has been under construction for half a year, will open next month.
At that time, tourists can take a cable car to enjoy the blooming of alpine rhododendrons and the mystery of the tropical rainforest.
No tourists are allowed to enter the tropical rainforest, which is a paradise for plants.
The dawn of victory is just around the corner, go for it!
