During the years of our students, who once did not stand under the phoenix tree and look at it every summer and then have to say, "So another school year is coming to an end." The red sky phoenix tree goes into the subconscious, into the childhood of the young students and becomes a statue of the innocent student age.

“Phoenix tail” is a Sino-Vietnamese compound word, meaning the tail of a phoenix. Perhaps this name comes from the flower of the tree with the color and shape of a phoenix. The phoenix is ​​native to the forests of Madagascar. It is said that the phoenix was introduced to Vietnam around the end of the 19th century by a Frenchman. In a tropical climate, the phoenix tree grows well, so we can see the familiar rows of phoenixes along the sidewalks of major streets or in school yards in Vietnam.

Phuong is a woody plant. A common phoenix tree has a height of about 6-12 meters. The trunk of the phoenix tree is quite large for one person to hug. Plant roots are cluster roots, which penetrate deep into the ground to absorb nutrients to nourish the plant. A few roots rose above the ground, zigzagging like giant snakes. The bark is dark brown, rough with lumps as large as an upside down bowl. The leaves are compound leaves, green in color, thin and small like tamarind leaves, growing symmetrically like fish bones. Occasionally, a gentle breeze blew, and the leaves swayed and fluttered in the sun like fans fluttering in the air. From the trunk grew many large and small branches like arms reaching out to catch the sun, forming a giant canopy that cast shade over a wide area of ​​the ground. In particular, the phoenix tree goes into people's hearts by the clusters of red phoenix flowers like brilliant sparks every summer. The phoenix flower has five large, thin petals, smooth to the touch like velvet. Particularly, the fifth wing grows straight and is slightly larger than the remaining wings. The last petal has white and yellow spots that look quite fancy. The phoenix flower wears a crimson or orange-red coat as if dyed by the harsh summer sun. Phuong does not bloom individually, but blooms in clusters of five to eight flowers. Therefore, every time the cicadas chirp to signal the return of summer, the whole phoenix tree glows red, looking from afar like a giant gac raspberry. The phoenix flower falls is also the time when the phoenix fruit begins to develop. The phoenix fruit is dark brown when ripe, curved like a sickle, sometimes up to 60cm long and about 5cm wide. Separate the outer shell, inside are phoenix seeds that can be roasted to eat or to make firewood.


 
Phuong is often planted for shade as well as to beautify the landscape on either side of the street or on the school grounds. The phoenix tree sticks with students during their school years. Every recess, groups of mixed-race students sit under the shady phoenix tree, playing and chatting happily. The students often pick up fallen phoenix flowers to play cockfighting. Laughter and voices filled the whole yard. The bark and roots of the phoenix tree are also used to make antipyretic and antipyretic drugs, and the trunk can be used for wood. The image of the phoenix tree is also an inspiration in poetry and music. Xuan Dieu used to have a poem titled "Student flowers", poet Thanh Tung had the work "Red Flower Period" and there were also many melodious and profound songs sung with the image of crimson phoenix flowers:

“Hôm qua còn lấm tấm, chen lẫn màu lá xanh
Sáng nay bừng lửa thẫm, rừng rực cháy trên cành.
Bà ơi sao mà nhanh, phượng nở nghìn mắt lửa.
Cả dãy phố nhà mình, một trời hoa phượng đỏ…”
(Hoa phượng đỏ - Nguyễn Quang Minh)

Every summer, the phoenix tail blooms, signaling the coming farewell season. The phoenix will forever become an unforgettable symbol in people's hearts, reminiscent of a joyful student time with many dreams and ambitions.
