Wufanzi, also known as Nanzhu, Wufanshu, and Wufanye. It is an evergreen shrub or small tree of the Rhododendaceae family. The general shape is that the inflorescences grow at the top and are axillary. There are many flowers, which are purple-black when mature. The outside is pubescent, and some hairs are particularly sparse. The flowering period is between June and July, and the fruit ripening period is between August and October. The fruit tastes a bit like blueberries. It is more widely distributed in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Fujian, Anhui and other places in my country. So what are its common varieties? Let’s take a look.

Little leaf Nanzhu

Little Leaf Nanzhu

This variety of Wufanzi is different from the original variety because its leaves are relatively small, about 1cm to 4cm, and the width is about 1cm. Moreover, all parts of its plant are basically hairless or have very little hair. This variety is generally produced in southern parts of China such as Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Guangxi. It usually grows under mountain forests at altitudes between 800 meters and 1,300 meters. This variety of black rice seeds has very good value, and science is developing, so the mutated varieties can better meet people's needs, allowing plants to better reflect their own value.

Inverted oval southern candle

This kind The difference from the original variant is that the leaves are relatively small and have an obovate shape. The length is generally about 1.3 cm and the width is about 1 cm. Its top is blunt and rounded, with many teeth on the edge. The bottom is wedge-shaped and gradually narrows. It is generally produced in southern Guangdong and mostly grows in the grass on the roadside. This type specimen was collected from Lianhua Mountain in Haifeng.

Light Red Southern Candle

This The difference between this variety and the original variant lies in the color of the flowers. The color of its flowers is light red instead of white. When it blooms, it becomes light red, which is particularly spectacular and beautiful. However, the environment in which it grows is particularly harsh. They all grow in bushes on hillside or on rocks. Therefore, this variety is particularly cold and heat-resistant, easier to survive, and its value is also very considerable. This variety of black rice seeds is often produced in Jiangxi, my country. There are more of them in Pingyang, Zhejiang, so different varieties are grown in different places. It depends on what kind of temperature conditions they are more suitable to survive. So the varieties are also different for this reason.
