Ensete Lasiocarpum
''Musella lasiocarpa'' ( syn. ''Musa lasiocarpa''), commonly known as Chinese dwarf banana, golden lotus banana or Chinese yellow banana, is the sole species in the genus ''Musella''. It is thus a close relative of bananas, and also a member of the family Musaceae. The plant is native to the Yunnan province in China, where it grows high in the mountains up to an altitude of 2500 m. It is known for its erect, yellow pseudostems (see image), generally appearing during the second year of cultivation, that can last a few months. Just before opening, the yellow, flower-like pseudostem resembles a lotus - from which the plant gets one of its names. Under its synonym ''Musa lasiocarpa'', this plant has won the Royal Horticultural Society The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS), founded in 1804 as the Horticultural Society of London, is the UK's leading gardening charity. The RHS promotes horticulture through its five gardens at Wisley (Surrey), Hyde Hall (Essex), Harlow Carr (Nor ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''Golden Lotus'' is an album by pianist Kenny Barron which was recorded in 1980 and first released on the Muse label in 1982 before being reissued on CD by 32 Records with ''Sunset to Dawn'' in 1997. Reception In his review on Allmusic, Ron Wynn called it a "Solid 1980 session with the always vibrant, challenging pianist Kenny Barron and the underrated saxophonist John Stubblefield in fiery form" In JazzTimes David Zych wrote "''Golden Lotus'', vintage 1982, has Barron shunning the electrics, opting now to let his fingers control the touch and nuance of the tunes he's interpreting. All the tunes are his own, save for a wonderful "Darn that Dream," where Barron bares his soul with a gorgeous solo rendition of the ballad".Zych, D.JazzTimes Review accessed January 9, 2017 Track listing All compositions by Kenny Barron except where noted. # "Golden Lotus" – 5:57 # "Dewdrop" – 6:38 # "Cincero" – 8:57 # "Darn That Dream" ( Jimmy Van Heusen, Eddie DeLange) – 9:16 # "Row Ho ...

''Jin Ping Mei'' () — translated into English as ''The Plum in the Golden Vase'' or ''The Golden Lotus'' — is a Chinese novel of manners composed in vernacular Chinese during the latter half of the 16th century during the late Ming dynasty (1368–1644). Consisted of 100 chapters, it was published under the pseudonym Lanling Xiaoxiao Sheng (), "The Scoffing Scholar of Lanling," but the only clue to the actual identity is that the author hailed from Lanling County in present-day Shandong.Lu (1923) p.408 The novel circulated in manuscript as early as 1596, and may have undergone revision up to its first printed edition in 1610. The most widely read recension, edited and published with commentaries by Zhang Zhupo in 1695, deleted or rewrote passages important in understanding the author's intentions. The explicit depiction of sexuality garnered the novel a notoriety akin to ''Lady Chatterley's Lover'' and ''Lolita'' in English literature, but critics such as the translator Davi ...
