　　Osmanthus is one of China’s traditional top ten famous flowers, serving as an excellent ornamental and practical garden tree that combines greening, beautification, and aromatization. Its fragrance can be fresh enough to cleanse the air or rich enough to waft over long distances—an extraordinary trait. Especially during mid-autumn, when osmanthus bushes bloom in full splendor, enjoying a drink under the quiet night sky and bright full moon while admiring the blossoms, the rich fragrance greets the nose, leaving one feeling refreshed and invigorated. Among ancient Chinese flower-themed poetry, there is also a considerable number of works dedicated to osmanthus. Since ancient times, it has been deeply loved by the Chinese people and regarded as a traditional famous flower.
