The question of whether osmanthus flowers are still in bloom depends mainly on the specific variety of osmanthus flowers and the current season and climate conditions.
1. Osmanthus varieties and flowering time: Osmanthus has multiple varieties, including Four Seasons Osmanthus, Dan Osmanthus, Jin Osmanthus, and Yin Osmanthus. Their flowering time varies- Four season osmanthus: has a long flowering period, blooming in batches from September to March of the following year- Dan Gui and Jin Gui: mainly bloom from late September to early October- Silver Osmanthus: The flowering period is slightly earlier, starting from early September.
2. Current season and climate conditions: - The current time is September 25, 2024, which is in autumn and the main flowering season for osmanthus flowers- Climate conditions have a significant impact on the flowering of osmanthus flowers. Although the climate conditions may vary in different regions, generally speaking, the temperature, humidity, and lighting conditions in autumn are favorable for the flowering of osmanthus flowers.
3. Actual situation: According to publicly released information, the Summer Palace entered its best viewing period for osmanthus flowers on September 18, 2024, indicating that the osmanthus flowers were already in full bloom at that time- Considering that the flowering period of osmanthus is relatively long and it is still in autumn, it can be reasonably inferred that in many regions, osmanthus should still be in full bloom or about to enter the flowering period.
There is still a high possibility of osmanthus blooming now. But the specific opening and flowering conditions still need to be determined based on the local climate conditions and osmanthus varieties. If you want to appreciate osmanthus, it is recommended to visit local parks, botanical gardens, or osmanthus planting areas for on-site inspection.
