The earliest recorded Mandala was in the Tang Dynasty, and "Tumi" was recorded in various ancient books, but it was relatively few. In the Southern Song Dynasty, it suddenly increased sharply, with more than 100 ancient poems. However, it is a pity that the mandala has only been blooming for a season. There are few records in the Ming Dynasty. What's more, there are many inconsistencies among various flowers and trees, and the identity of the mandala has basically become a mystery.
Even now, when you search for the tumu on the Internet, the pictures are also strange. It's not surprising that this kind of plant, whose identity is not clear but full of literature and art, is constantly changing its identity in the singing of generations.
In fact, it is not the real plant name until now. As an alias, it has three main characters: .
Rubus rose, double bubble, perfume rose.
All three are Rosaceae plants, open to the intersection of spring and summer.
It is the most similar flower to the historical records of the mandala, because the color is white, often mixed with the wild rose, in fact, the two are very different plants. Generally, raspberry has a slightly stronger aroma, and flowers and fruits are also a little bigger. From a micro point of view, the style of Rosa rubra has pilose.
This kind of plant looks strange, but you must have seen it. It's a kind of rose mold. It's white and has many petals. In Japan, it's also called the head scarf rose.
The reason why this flower is listed is because the ancient books record that the flowers are yellow and white. Based on this statement, we speculate that another kind of flower may be the rose of perfume.
