Because it is not successful, it retains the following, and after a long time, the legend has risen, saying that it can cure diseases and keep safe, and this kind of thing is often seen in backward rural areas.

A few years ago, ** to tourism development, this legend was exaggerated to make up a story, claiming that there are experts passing by and saying that this book is very rare, only 2, a Canadian is female, the typhoon blew down and died, and now it is just such a tree, it is male, and it can't be grafted alive.

If there is really such a thing as that expert, he still doesn't report that there are major discoveries in the forestry system and write an article to mention the title? Since he hadn't seen it before, how did he know that there were only 2 trees, because other books didn't record him, so clear, what expert?

In a word, the legend is okay, don't take it seriously, and don't make up stories to fool people for what peony, it can't stand scrutiny.
