NIU FAMILY YELLOW also has multiple petals, and originates with the Niu family. It is smaller than the YAO YELLOW. The Chen-tsung Emperor (998-1022) conducted sacrificial ceremonies at Fen-yin and on his return to Loyang, lodged at Shu-ching Pavilion. Mr. Niu presented these flowers and thus they acquired this name. |
