What is the Red Seed Tree used for? In early spring and February, the buds of the tender leaves bloom one by one, the spring twilight is warm, and many white flowers bloom between the leaves, although there is no peony delicate, the red seeds never bloom empty flowers, a flower and a seed, a tree flower is a tree seed after autumn.

The seeds that have just produced red seeds are small, and they are not attractive at all, let alone beautiful. Autumn goes to winter, the red seeds gradually mature, clumps, strings, hanging all over the branches, only to make the lonely mountain red and dazzling.

After the frost in winter, the red seeds of the tree are picked and stuffed into the mouth, the taste is fresh and slightly sour, and the chewing is rustling, and it is a bit like hawthorn!

I remember the winter when I was in the first grade of elementary school was an unforgettable famine year. When the mother and the villagers were in that extremely difficult time, they carried a basket on their backs, took a sickle and a small bamboo sieve and went uphill to beat red seeds. She cut off the branches of the red seed tree and put them in the bamboo sieve, and with a small stick, all the red seeds fell into the bamboo sieve.

At that time, red seeds were everywhere, and they could be made in a basket in the morning, and they could be cooked and eaten when they came back to dry them. That year, the neighbors went up to the mountain every day to hunt red seeds, and in those difficult years, the red seeds became the "life-saving food" of the people.

According to the old man, Zhuge Liang in ancient times.

led the troops to fight, and once the army was trapped in the mountains and ran out of arrows and ammunition. A soldier found a low plant in the mountains and fields full of red round grains, and tried to eat a few and found that it was not poisonous and edible. So the soldiers picked a large number of fruits to satisfy their hunger, and turned defeat into victory in the battle against the enemy, and later called it "salvation food".

Nowadays, people are richer. Red seeds are not eaten by people, and the red seeds of a tree have become a delicacy for birds.
