Orange jasmine is truly a treasure among bonsai specimens.
Orange jasmine belongs to the Rutaceae family, the same family as citrus, and is also known as Chinese box orange; it is an evergreen shrub. It has the characteristics of being short and vigorous, with fine leaves and strong branches, and gnarled roots. Bonsai enthusiasts imitate painting techniques and, through pruning, shaping and other methods, can transform it into a bonsai art treasure that is either vigorous and majestic or elegant and graceful. The branch pads of orange jasmine bonsai are mostly shaped using the unique Lingnan school "grow branches and truncate the trunk" method, appearing firm and powerful with well-balanced layers; moreover, each branch pad independently forms a tree, and each branch tree independently forms a scene. If any branch pad is casually cut off, it conforms to the standards of an independent bonsai shape.

Method for trial-producing rutaceous tea from mandarin orange flowers
Mandarin orange flowers contain sugars such as fructose and glucose that aid digestion and promote health; phosphorus, which has a stimulating effect on the nerves; multiple vitamins that resist capillary fragility; large amounts of rutin and aromatic oils that soothe the liver and purge the lungs and help regulate qi and resolve phlegm, as well as starch and other substances, making them highly nutritious. At the Shili orange orchard in Liangshitang, Shaodong County, we watched as nearly 300 dan of flowers removed from more than 100,000 young Wenzhou mandarin orange trees not yet intended for production were wasted for nothing, which was truly a pity. After repeated trials, we roughly produced some "rutaceous tea." "Rutaceous tea" is simple to make. Take 9 parts tea leaves
