What are the four gentlemen of plants?

plum

It blooms in the cold, is extremely beautiful, and has the characteristic of defying frost and snow, and is a symbol of perseverance.

Spring is back, all things begin to come to life, and flowers bloom. There are four seasons in a year, and the scenery is different in each season. Spring is the time when flowers bloom. You, the plum blossom, bloom alone in the cold winter, in the wind and snow. Do you disdain to compete with other flowers, or are you trying to attract attention and pretend to be noble?

orchid

Firstly, the flowers are light in color and have a sweet fragrance; secondly, they often grow in secluded places, so they are often seen as a symbol of a modest gentleman.

Ever since the saying of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum was introduced, orchid has always been ranked second. Orchids continue to smell fragrant after the plum blossoms fade. Orchid, "I cultivate the orchid buds with my own hands for two or three times, under warm sun and gentle breeze. I sit for a long time without realizing the fragrance is in the room, and when I open the window, butterflies fly in." It is an indoor gentleman, not resistant to wind and frost, a real flower in a greenhouse.

bamboo

It does not wither in winter and is a beautiful sight in itself. It is upright, modest, neither arrogant nor servile, and behaves in a carefree manner. It is often seen as a symbol of elegant people who are different from the mainstream.

People see bamboo growing quietly in the wild mountains and wilderness, and it can survive tenaciously no matter whether it is on peaks and ridges or in valleys. Despite enduring endless loneliness and desolation for years, and enduring the beating and torture of wind, frost, snow and rain all year round, she always "holds on to the green mountains" and is considered strong, but is her vitality really more tenacious than that of a wild grass? The answer is obviously no.

chrysanthemum

It is not only beautiful and elegant, with a fragrant scent, but also more gorgeous than other flowers after they have withered and does not compete with other flowers. Therefore, it has always been used to symbolize noble character that is calm and unyielding.

There have been countless poems about chrysanthemums since ancient times, and the line "I would rather die with fragrance on the branch, than be blown away by the north wind" is particularly famous. This sentence is intended to explain that the chrysanthemum would rather die on the branch than be blown down by the north wind. It depicts the image of the chrysanthemum that is proud and frost-proof, aloof and extraordinary, and highlights its determination to uphold noble moral principles.
