花(hua)(hua)為鮮艷的(de)大紅色,完全重(zhong)瓣(ban)型,也有極少數的(de)花(hua)(hua)為“玫瑰重(zhong)瓣(ban)型或牡(mu)丹型”。大型花(hua)(hua),花(hua)(hua)直徑可(ke)達10至12厘米以上。花(hua)(hua)瓣(ban)一百多枚,覆(fu)瓦狀六角形排(pai)列。
原產地浙江松(song)陽(yang)。
在松(song)陽(yang)(yang)縣小石村(cun),有一(yi)棵(ke)民國初(chu)年(nian)栽(zai)培的“松(song)陽(yang)(yang)紅”,樹高約5米,底部(bu)直徑(jing)20厘(li)米,主(zhu)人說此花(hua)來(lai)自(zi)山頭背村(cun)。上(shang)(shang)世紀七十年(nian)代末、八(ba)十年(nian)代初(chu),金華花(hua)農來(lai)小石村(cun)高價購松(song)陽(yang)(yang)紅枝條扦插(cha)栽(zai)培,后金華將其(qi)命名為“六角大(da)紅”。小石村(cun)這(zhe)棵(ke)古茶花(hua)樹,2005年(nian)被(bei)當地人購去,移栽(zai)枯死。現僅留主(zhu)人七十年(nian)代末扦插(cha)的幾(ji)棵(ke),有一(yi)棵(ke)直徑(jing)10厘(li)米種植在松(song)陽(yang)(yang)一(yi)中(zhong)新(xin)大(da)樓門(men)廳前,另有幾(ji)棵(ke)古市鎮人購得。上(shang)(shang)世紀,周圍村(cun)莊均(jun)不見此花(hua)栽(zai)培,怪(guai)哉。
“六角大(da)紅”茶花(hua)(hua)因花(hua)(hua)朵全重(zhong)瓣(ban),鮮紅色的花(hua)(hua)色非常艷麗而深(shen)受歡迎。浙江金華每年(nian)通過扦插(cha)繁(fan)殖、銷(xiao)售的一(yi)(yi)二(er)年(nian)生“六角大(da)紅”小(xiao)苗(miao)大(da)約在(zai)500萬株左(zuo)右。在(zai)生產數量不足和市場(chang)需(xu)求量與(yu)日(ri)俱增(zeng)的雙(shuang)重(zhong)作用(yong)下,“六角大(da)紅”的價格一(yi)(yi)路(lu)飆(biao)升(sheng)。
金華種(zhong)植的大(da)(da)部份六角(jiao)大(da)(da)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong),原自小石村“松(song)陽(yang)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)”,但由于在金華多代嫁接等(deng)原因,跟(gen)(gen)“原種(zhong)松(song)陽(yang)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)”相比,已明顯退化了。此外,還有產地福(fu)建、江西、湖南的六角(jiao)大(da)(da)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong),無(wu)論(lun)是花的瓣形(xing)、色澤和(he)葉形(xing),均無(wu)法跟(gen)(gen)“松(song)陽(yang)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)”媲(pi)美(mei)。現松(song)陽(yang)單位(wei)、農戶(hu)所栽品(pin)種(zhong),為金華、福(fu)建產“六角(jiao)大(da)(da)紅(hong)(hong)(hong)(hong)”。
“六(liu)角大紅(hong)”也叫:“松陽紅(hong)”。樹(shu)形優美(mei),枝條(tiao)豐滿挺拔,葉片濃(nong)綠色(se)倒卵(luan)形有齒(chi),生長較(jiao)慢(man)。
原種“松(song)陽紅”花(hua)(hua)直徑可(ke)達(da)10至(zhi)(zhi)12厘米以上,大部(bu)份的花(hua)(hua)為(wei)“六角形(xing)瓦片狀整齊排列”和(he)“輪狀盤(pan)旋形(xing)整齊排列”,花(hua)(hua)瓣(ban)(ban)8至(zhi)(zhi)10輪以上,每朵花(hua)(hua)有(you)一百多瓣(ban)(ban),完全重(zhong)瓣(ban)(ban)型(xing)。也有(you)極少數的花(hua)(hua)為(wei)“玫(mei)瑰重(zhong)瓣(ban)(ban)型(xing)或牡丹型(xing)”。
在松(song)(song)陽,最早(zao)見花(hua)(hua)在農(nong)歷12月(yue)(yue)中(zhong)(zhong)下旬(xun),盛花(hua)(hua)期在農(nong)歷2月(yue)(yue)中(zhong)(zhong)上旬(xun),最晚在清明節還可見到花(hua)(hua)。單(dan)朵花(hua)(hua)開(kai)(kai)放時間,低溫(wen)二周,高溫(wen)一周。花(hua)(hua)朵從初放至凋(diao)謝(xie),花(hua)(hua)瓣(ban)均保持挺(ting)拔,絕無后(hou)翻(fan)及明顯退(tui)色現(xian)象(xiang)。若遇低溫(wen)開(kai)(kai)放,花(hua)(hua)瓣(ban)邊緣不焦枯,遇高溫(wen)多雨花(hua)(hua)朵中(zhong)(zhong)心不暴(bao)裂,均完(wan)全飽(bao)滿開(kai)(kai)放。“松(song)(song)陽紅”的(de)花(hua)(hua)瓣(ban)中(zhong)(zhong)凹厚(hou)挺(ting),中(zhong)(zhong)心花(hua)(hua)瓣(ban)絕無白斑(ban)條現(xian)象(xiang)出現(xian),整朵花(hua)(hua)為極艷(yan)麗(li)的(de)“中(zhong)(zhong)國(guo)紅”。凋(diao)謝(xie)花(hua)(hua)朵完(wan)全自行脫落,無枯花(hua)(hua)掛枝現(xian)象(xiang)。
“松(song)陽(yang)紅(hong)”的花(hua)(hua)瓣中凹(ao)厚(hou)挺(ting),中心花(hua)(hua)瓣絕無白斑條現(xian)象出現(xian),整(zheng)朵(duo)花(hua)(hua)為極(ji)艷麗(li)的“中國紅(hong)”。凋(diao)謝花(hua)(hua)朵(duo)完全自行(xing)脫落,無枯花(hua)(hua)掛枝現(xian)象。有觀賞價值。
紅(hong)紅(hong)的花朵(duo)飽含著(zhu)濃(nong)濃(nong)的詩,濃(nong)濃(nong)的詩里(li)蘊藏著(zhu)喜悅的美(mei)。六角(jiao)大紅(hong)花絢麗(li),綿(mian)綿(mian)情悠悠!
