About This Presentation
Title:

China Tulip fields 4

Description:

Several botanical gardens and flower-themed parks in China show zeal for importing and planting a newly cultivated variety of tulip from the Netherlands, after the flower was blessed with a new name by China's First Lady Peng Liyuan. A newly cultivated variety of tulip was named "Cathay" in the Netherlands in 2014 by Peng Liyuan, who visited the country with her husband President Xi Jinping. After Peng poured champagne to bless the tulip, Dutch Queen Maxima offered it as a gift to China's first lady. Cathay is the old name of China in Holland, and is translated as guotai, meaning "prosperous country". And prosperity is exactly what leaders of both countries are hoping for. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
