There has always been the saying in folklore that "August Osmanthus blooms." In previous years, the osmanthus usually bloomed in the eighth lunar month (around the Mid-Autumn Festival). This year, in the season when the osmanthus should be fragrant, citizens did not see the flowers bloom nor smell their fragrance. Now, when the osmanthus is blooming at its best, it is already the end of October (the mid-ninth lunar month). Why is the osmanthus blooming late this year? This is the reason many "osmanthus fans" want to know.
"The main reason for the late blooming of the osmanthus this year is still the weather. The optimal blooming temperature for osmanthus is about 20 degrees Celsius, but the temperature around the Mid-Autumn Festival this year was high, all above 30 degrees Celsius, and there was less rainfall, which led to the late blooming of the osmanthus." Professor Wu Zhengsi from the provincial botanical garden introduced that although the osmanthus bloomed late, it would not be absent.
"We received many inquiries from citizens around the Mid-Autumn Festival, asking why they didn't see the osmanthus blooming in the osmanthus garden. Now, I am happy to tell everyone that the osmanthus is blooming at its best and welcome everyone to come and enjoy the flowers." The staff of the provincial botanical garden told the reporter that the osmanthus in the garden is concentrated by the cherry blossom lake. "The osmanthus garden covers an area of 45 mu, and most of the osmanthus trees are nearly 30 years old, including four populations: Dan Gui, Jin Gui, Yin Gui, and Si Ji Gui. Currently, Dan Gui and Jin Gui have entered the viewing period."
It is understood that the optimal viewing period for osmanthus is generally about 10-20 days. Now that the temperature in Changsha is relatively low, will this shorten the viewing period of the osmanthus? "If it is just the temperature dropping, the already blooming osmanthus will slightly extend the flowering period due to the decrease in temperature." Professor Wu explained, "As long as there is no strong wind and heavy rain, the impact on the viewing period of the osmanthus will not be too great."
