Perfume Lotus and Amorphophallus Flower from Yunnan have made their home in this village in Shanghai | perfume Lotus | Shanghai
The appreciation and love of lotus by Chinese people have existed since ancient times. In the perfume lotus planting area of Xinlu Village, Luojing Town, Baoshan District, pieces of green lotus leaves float on the water, and yellow and purple lotus flowers are either in bud, graceful or blooming in the wind, forming a beautiful pastoral color ink painting. Entering the blooming period of lotus flowers, the surrounding people came to take photos and check in one after another.
This lotus pond, covering an area of about 10 mu, is mainly planted with perfume lotus, which is introduced from Qujing City, Yunnan Province, the counterpart of Baoshan District. According to the relevant person in charge, the lotus fragrance of this variety is light and elegant, with a flowering period of about three months, which has high economic benefits. It is rich in collagen, crude protein, plant-based placenta, and can provide skin nutrition and minerals. It can be used for health preservation, tea making, cosmetics manufacturing, and other purposes.
In recent years, Luojing Town has made every effort to implement the Shanghai Yunnan Cooperation Project, consolidate the achievements of poverty alleviation, and always adhere to the main theme of cultivating and strengthening diversified industries to ensure stable income increase for the people. Following the concept of "tailored to each village and classified development" and combining with resource characteristics, it continues to optimize industrial layout and assist in comprehensive rural revitalization. Perfume lotus from Yunnan "settled down" in Xinlu Village, which reflects the concept of "Shanghai Yunnan friendship grows, and cooperation promotes development".

In addition to perfume Lotus, the plantation in Xinlu Village also introduced Amorphophallus yunnanensis. It is understood that the konjac industry is a pillar industry in Fuyuan County, Qujing City, and its climate and geographical conditions are very conducive to the growth of konjac. At present, konjac is widely used in food, medicine, health and other projects. Due to its good taste, low calorie content, strong satiety, and rich dietary fiber, it has gradually become a good choice for people to eat healthily.
Huang Lei, the person in charge of Xinlu Village Plantation, said, "Our area of konjac cultivation is not large, and we are trying to explore the business model of 'front store and back factory'. Combining with the current rural revitalization and learning experience work in Luojing, we will open up interactive services and experiential viewing venues to guide citizens to purchase and experience Yunnan specialties through our exclusive channels."
"Spanning thousands of miles, connected by the sea of clouds," the Shanghai Yunnan Cooperation Project has tightly linked the people of Shanghai and Yunnan, who are separated by mountains and rivers. Next, Luojing Town will continue to implement the important instructions from superiors on cooperation between the East and the West, make comprehensive and precise efforts, assist cooperation, and work together to further promote the effective connection between poverty alleviation achievements and rural revitalization, and jointly write a new chapter of win-win cooperation between Shanghai and Yunnan in the new era.
