Thread Content
There is a type of tree that is an oil-producing species unique to our country; its place of origin is Xinxiang in Hunan, while Zhejiang is the region where it is produced in the largest quantities. It is likely that few people in the north are familiar with this tree species. The sapwood of these trees is white, while the inner part is yellowish-white; they are an excellent choice for use in shipbuilding and furniture manufacturing. This tree in our country has a history of over a thousand years; it prefers areas with plenty of sunlight.
This tree has a name: the \"Longevity Tree.\" It can live for up to 500 years, which is considered a very long lifespan for a tree; moreover, its growth rate is extremely slow – it takes 3 years from the formation of flower buds to the ripening of the fruits. It can bear fruit in 3 generations at a time.
This tree has another name: it hurts when alive and it hurts when dead.
I’ve seen this tree in Hunan; it really stings!
