Spring has arrived, and the grass and plants in Guandu Nature Park are gradually donning their spring attire, blooming in vibrant colors and presenting a breathtaking sight. Within the park, flowers such as Spiranthes sinensis, Mazus pumilus, and Melia azedarach, adorned with pink and purple blossoms, are blooming one after another, heralding the arrival of spring and inviting everyone to explore and take photos in Guandu Nature Park, capturing the beautiful scenery of spring.

Guandu Nature Park points out that the spinning dancer "Spiranthes sinensis" is the most approachable wild orchid, found on grasslands below 1,000 meters in altitude. Its flowering period peaks around the Qingming Festival, hence it is also called the Qingming grass. Dozens of small flowers are spirally arranged on the flower stem, forming a delicate and adorable shape like a spinning skirt dancer, so beautiful it captivates the heart. "Mazus pumilus," unremarkable as a tiny plant underfoot when not in bloom, is a true harbinger of spring. The gradually lengthening daylight after the Beginning of Spring prompts the small flower spikes of Mazus pumilus to bloom, creating purple flower carpets across the sunny grasslands that attentive observers can easily notice. Under the allure of "Mazus pumilus," one can feel the joy of spring’s arrival. Additionally, "Melia azedarach," which appears as bare branches in the cold winter, bursts into beautiful purple blooms in spring. When resting leisurely under the tree, the gentle breeze carries waves of rich floral fragrance, refreshing the mind and lifting the spirit, allowing visitors to sense the arrival of spring!
