Spring comes three weeks early
About this region
WhereThe hills of Luye and Beinan (Fulu); the Jinzhen Mountain area in Taimali and Jinfeng (Taifeng)
ScaleFulu stays under about 200 m; Taifeng lies on gentle slopes at 800–1,500 m, about 135 ha
Cultivars and characterFulu picks early: its spring crop runs more than twenty days ahead of the west coast, and early-spring lots go fast. Up at Taifeng the cloud sits year-round, the day-night swing is wide and rain is plentiful; Qingxin Oolong, Jinxuan and Cuiyu grow on slopes that used to be daylily fields.
