Medicinal value
Pansy can sterilize and treat acne, acne and allergies on the skin. Among the holy products of skin care recorded in ancient medical books in China, pansy is undoubtedly the most dazzling. Corydalis tricolor was listed as an important skin care medicine in the Three Kingdoms period. In order to win the favor of harem beauties, Emperor Yang Di organized Imperial Physician to study various methods of pansy acne removal, and wrote them one by one in "Yang Di Hougong Prescription" and "Xiangfang Powder". The classic Chinese medicine book Compendium of Materia Medica records in detail the magical acne-removing effect of Corydalis tricolor: "Corydalis tricolor is mild in nature and fragrant in taste, which can lead medicine to the exterior, remove sores and scars, eliminate sores and reduce swelling." The whole plant of Corydalis tricolor can be used as medicine, and its stems and leaves contain Corydalis tricolor, which is mainly used to treat cough and other diseases.
Scientific and technological value
The natural and pure plant Corydalis tricolor, the national flower of Iceland, is selected, and the latest PURIFY technology in the world is adopted to extract the green peptide, which is the essence of acne, and a variety of pure natural extracts are added to quickly penetrate into the deep skin, effectively inhibiting the secretion of excess oil and the proliferation of Propionibacterium acnes, removing acne from the source, achieving the effects of redness, scar removal, oil control and whitening, comprehensively conditioning the skin to a neutral state of water, oil and health, and completely solving the problem.
Ornamental value
Pansy is one of the main flowers for arranging flower beds in spring. Because the flowers of three colors are symmetrically distributed on five petals, the pattern is similar to the ears, cheeks and mouth of a cat, so it is also called cat face. Because the whole flower is like a flying butterfly when it is blown by the wind, it has another name for iris. After natural hybridization and artificial breeding, there are many colors and varieties of pansy flowers at present. Besides the three colors, there are pure white, pure yellow, pure purple, purple black and so on. In addition, there are Rayna Sue, white and black collocation and mixed colors of purple, red, blue, yellow and white. From the pattern, there are big flowers, wavy petals and double petals.
Pansy is an excellent flower bed material in winter and spring. Because of its strong adaptability and extensive management, it can be appreciated by potted workers.

There is also a perennial cluster corydalis with deep purple flowers and rich fragrance, which can extract the essence.
[Edit this paragraph] Morphological characteristics
Corydalis tricolor, with an average plant height of 15-20 cm, branches from the rhizosphere and is clustered. Basal leaves have long stems, nearly round leaves and heart-shaped; Cauline leaves ovoid oblong or broadly lanceolate, with rounded and obtuse serrations at the edges; Stipules are large and pinnately separated at the base. In early spring, a long pedicel is pulled out from the axils of leaves, and a single flower grows on the pedicel, with a large flower diameter of 8- 10 cm, a small flower diameter of 3-6 cm and 5 petals. Usually, every flower has blue, purple, white and yellow. Petals suborbicular, pseudomorphic, imbricate, with short and obtuse spur. The flowering period can be from early spring to early autumn. The stems and leaves contain pansy glycoside; Flowers contain rutin, volatile oil, saponin and vitamin a.c.
[Edit this paragraph] Growth habit
It is cold-tolerant, likes to be cool, and develops well at daytime temperature of 15-25℃ and nighttime temperature of 3-5℃. If the temperature keeps higher than 30℃ during the day, the flower buds will disappear or not form petals. The influence of sunshine duration on flowering is greater than that of light intensity, and poor sunshine is not good for flowering. I like neutral loam or clay loam which is fertile, well drained and rich in organic matter. It is a perennial flower, usually planted once every two years.
[Edit this paragraph] Breeding
type
In terms of sowing methods, autumn and winter are the suitable sowing periods in South China, and the suitable temperature for seed germination is about 15-20C. Sow the seeds evenly in snake sawdust, keep them moist, and germinate in about 10- 15 days. If the temperature is too high to germinate easily, you can accelerate germination before sowing, fold half a piece of toilet paper into a square, put it in a small plastic zipper bag, then drop a little water to make the toilet paper fully absorb water, then pour the seeds into the bag, seal the bag mouth, put it in the refrigerator for 5-8C, and take it out for sowing after about 6-7 days. When the leaves grow to 2-3 after germination, the heel is put into the seedling pot, topdressing 1-2 times, and transplanting to 5-7 leaves.
Cutting or layering propagation can be carried out in early summer, and cutting can be carried out in March-July, especially in early summer. Generally, it is better to cut off the short branches sprouting from the roots of plants as cuttings, but the flowering branches cannot be used as cuttings. Rooting can take place in about 2-3 weeks after cutting, and the survival rate is very high. It is also easy to survive by stratified reproduction.
Training emphasis
Potted plants are per 1 7cm1plant, and the spacing between flower beds is15-20cm. The cultivated soil is rich in organic matter, or mixed with peat soil 30%, snake sawdust 20%, loam soil 40% and decomposed compost 10%. Topdressing 1 time every 20-30 days during the growth period, and all kinds of organic fertilizers or nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are good. Cutting off the residual flowers immediately after the flowers wither can promote the re-flowering. After the end of spring, the temperature will be higher and the flowering will be less and less. Sexual preference is cold or warm, avoiding high temperature and high humidity. The suitable temperature for delivery is 5-23℃. If there is sudden heat and high temperature above 28℃, we should try our best to have good ventilation to reduce the temperature to prevent withering and death. Diseases can be controlled by Puccinia petiolata, Erie or Sheng Da, and pests can be controlled by quick-killing pine and wanling.
Cultivation precautions: night temperature 16℃ to 18℃, 18℃ to 24℃ should not have high temperature.
Pansy likes to be cool and needs plenty of light. It is best to partially shade it in retail to reduce water loss.
Don't water it too much, because pansy grows in a cool area and the water won't dissipate quickly, so it doesn't need much water.
primary pest
The main pest that harms pansy is thrips flavipectus. It mainly harms pansy flowers with nymphs and adults, and leaves gray spots. When the injury is serious, the petals of pansy will shrink and the flowers will wither ahead of time. The adults and nymphs of thrips flavipectus are generally hidden in flowers, and the females lay eggs in the epidermis of stamens or petals. When it is harmful, they file the epidermis of plants with mouthparts to absorb juice, and it often happens in high temperature and dry seasons. Control measures: 4,000 times of 2.5% deltamethrin or 0/500 times of fenitrothion/kloc-0, spraying every 10 day/time.
[Edit this paragraph] Myths and legends
A long time ago, people said that viola flowers were pure white, like clouds in the sky. Naughty Cupid is a little urchin. The bow and arrow in his hand has the magic of love. Whoever shoots at it can't help falling in love with the person he sees at first sight. Unfortunately, Cupid is naughty and can't shoot accurately, so human love stories often go wrong. On this day, Cupid found another unlucky ghost and prepared to shoot an arrow with him. Who knows that an arrow shot out, suddenly a gust of wind blew over, and this arrow actually hit the white viola flower. Blood and tears flowed from the heart of the white viola flower, which could not be erased after drying. Since then, the white viola has become today's pansy, which is the origin of pansy in fairy tales.
There is a big garden in heaven. Every spring, many beautiful exotic flowers and plants grow in the garden, attracting many gods to enjoy the flowers in the garden. This year, it's time to enjoy flowers again.
This morning, the beautiful goddess Venus got up early, dressed herself carefully, put on a silk dress and dazzling jewels, and excitedly took her precious son Cupid to the garden. At this time, many gods arrived and everyone formed a circle. I don't know what they are enjoying. Even the beautiful Venus has come, and no one wants to say hello to her. Venus, who was left out in the cold, was a little unhappy. She used to be praised by others wherever she went. What happened today? She leaned up and saw that everyone was busy looking at viola flowers. This year's viola blossoms are very lush and particularly eye-catching, and all the immortals are full of praise.
Venus has always been very jealous. She always thinks that the most beautiful thing in the world should of course be a beautiful god. She was most afraid of being told that there was something more beautiful than her, so she asked her son Cupid, "My good son, look at these viola flowers carefully. Who is more beautiful than my mother? " Unexpectedly, the naive Cupid blurted out without thinking: "Viola, of course!" "All the gods burst out laughing. When Venus heard this, she suddenly flew into a rage and didn't talk to others all day.
It was dark and the gods went home one after another. Venus went to Viola and looked around, the more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. So she raised her whip and whipped Viola, and said bitterly, "I told you to be more beautiful than me! I told you to be more beautiful than me! " I didn't stop until I was tired of playing. Because it was dark, Venus couldn't see clearly and thought that Viola should be dead, so she went home triumphantly. I didn't expect Viola to be so tenacious in life. Although it was badly hurt, it didn't die, but it was still strong and alive. Just because he was whipped, his face was black and blue, leaving spots of different shades and becoming a "flower cat face".
The next spring, viola bloomed again. It changed from the original monochrome to pansy with several colors on it. Unexpectedly, this "cat face" made it look more beautiful than before, and won more praise from gods at the flower viewing meeting.
It turned out that the brown pattern on Percy's body was left by the angel kissing three times when he came to the meeting. It is said that when the angel kissed Percy, her face was printed on the petals.
So everyone who meets Percy will have a happy ending.
