After leaving the Hundred Bamboo Garden, Li Yao continued walking along the park and arrived at the Dragon Brain Fragrance Garden.
Plants of the Dipterocarpaceae family are mainly distributed in tropical Asia and are representative tree species in the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia. They are also unique and precious tree species in my country's tropical seasonal rainforests.
The Dipterocarpaceae family comprises 15 genera and 580 species worldwide. China contains 5 genera and 13 species.
Since its establishment in 1959, Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden has been introducing and cultivating Dipterocarpaceae plants from home and abroad, covering an area of 101 mu.
In recent years, tropical rainforest vegetation has been destroyed, and some species of Dipterocarpaceae have been brought to the brink of extinction. Almost all Dipterocarpaceae plants native to China are listed as national-level rare and endangered protected plants.
Borneol produces resin with an oil yield of 0.06-1.0%, which has a rich fragrance and can be used as a perfume.
If you make a small indentation in a tree trunk with an iron chisel and light it with fire, it will immediately burst into flames. After a few minutes, the sap from the tree trunk will drip down and quickly fill the small indentation.
The monks of Dai monasteries regard camphor as a "sacred tree" and a "treasure among trees." They often use this oil to light the "everlasting lamps" in front of the Buddha, and also use this oil to brew Dai "holy medicines," which are called "dragon's saliva incense." It is said to be formed from the saliva flowing from the mouth of a dragon and can cure all diseases.
Borneol is also known as camphor or borneol. The ointment is called borneol (Note: which is now commonly known as borneol).
Taste: pungent, bitter, slightly cold, non-toxic.
It is used to treat eye diseases, headaches, toothaches, and sore throats caused by wind-heat.
Li Yao had never used borneol before, but she had heard of "ambergris," so she dug up one of the highest-level (level 5) mutated trees and several level 4 mutated trees in the garden, planning to try out this "ambergris" in her spare time.
After leaving the camphor garden, Li Yao arrived at the wild ginger garden.
She only knew about ginger, so she was also a little curious.
The ginger garden covers an area of approximately 100 acres and currently preserves over 170 species of wild ginger plants belonging to 16 genera, including rare and endangered plants such as fennel seed, cardamom, long-fruited ginger, and Menghai ginger.
Important Chinese medicinal herbs include Amomum villosum, Alpinia oxyphylla, Amomum tsao-ko, ginger, Amomum cardamomum, Alpinia galanga, Curcuma longa, Curcuma zedoaria, Curcuma longa, and Zingiber officinale. It also preserves ginger family plants used as spices, pigments, starches, vegetables, and beautiful ornamental plants.
Upon entering the garden, Li Yao discovered that many of the medicinal herbs here were variants belonging to the ginger family.
For example, the fruit of the Alpinia oxyphylla is used medicinally. It benefits the spleen and stomach, regulates vital energy, and tonifies the kidneys to treat diarrhea, abdominal pain, vomiting, loss of appetite, increased salivation, bedwetting, and frequent urination caused by spleen and stomach (or kidney) deficiency and cold.
Cardamom is a major medicinal and edible herb in traditional Chinese medicine. It is used as a flavoring spice, and aromatic oil can be extracted from the entire plant. The fruit is used medicinally, possessing properties that dry dampness, strengthen the spleen, eliminate phlegm, and treat malaria. It is primarily used to treat abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting, food stagnation, and malaria. Many traditional Chinese medicine preparations rely on its ingredients, such as Tougu Soufeng Wan, Yishen Wan, Kaiyu Shugan Wan, Kuanxiong Lige Wan, and Jiebai Wan.
Cardamom has the effects of dispelling cold and dampness, strengthening the spleen and promoting digestion.
Turmeric has the effects of regulating qi and relieving depression, cooling blood and breaking up blood stasis.
Other soybeans are also medicinal herbs, and their medicinal value is quite significant after mutation.
Li Yao kept digging and digging in the large wild ginger garden, bringing all the herbs home.
It was already 5 p.m., and although it wasn't dark in Banna, Li Yao decided to go to one last place before going back for dinner.
The last stop, of course, is Baixiangyuan.
