Flower color difference: the flowers of sea fairies have red, white, pink and other colors, and the flowers of different colors can bloom in the same branch. But the brocade flower generally only has red and pink two kinds of colors. Seed difference: the seeds of Narcissus have wings, while the seeds of broccoli have no wings.

Introduction to fairyland and brocade

Haixianhua and jindaihua belong to the honeysuckle family. Haixianhua is a species of jindaihua in the honeysuckle family. Both of them have a very long flowering period, sometimes up to several months. They are suitable for group planting and can not grow in waterlogged environment. It is often used as the ornament of rockery and stone, with strong germination force and very fast growth rate. In addition, as a traditional Chinese medicine, haixianhua has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxification.

Sea Fairy Flower

Difference 1: flower color

Brocade is a bush. When it blooms, it has only red and pink flowers.

Sea fairies are trees, some of which can grow up to four or five meters high. Because the red, white and pink flowers will bloom on the same branch, and the color will gradually change, just like five colors, so there is the title of five color Begonia

Difference 2: calyx lobes of flowers

Because the flowers of these two kinds of plants are very similar, in order to distinguish, there is a simple and different saying in the field of Landscape Dendrology: "half of the brocade belt, the narcissus in the end", which means that the calyx lobes of the brocade belt flower start from the middle to the bottom, while the calyx lobes of the narcissus flower directly split from the top to the bottom. Using this saying, the two kinds of plants can be easily identified in the flowering period.

Difference 3: the shape of the seed

The seed of Narcissus has wings, but the seed of chrysanthes is wingless, so observing the seed can also be used as a way to identify the two flowers.
