In the middle of October, sweet-scented osmanthus bloomed in Guangzhou one after another. In the osmanthus garden of Pearl River Park, a large number of osmanthus bloomed on the branches. Many citizens came to enjoy the flowers and take photos of the "intoxicating" osmanthus fragrance. Li Jianji, director of the Guangdong Ecological Society, said: "This is the first time that osmanthus flowers have blossomed in Guangzhou since the second half of this year. The osmanthus flowers generally bloom in October, with a full flowering period of only seven days."
