Abstract: Taking the camphor tree (Cinnamomum glanduliferum) planted by Mr.Deng Xiao-ping in Xiamen Botanical Garden as example,the biological characteristics,original distribution and introduction of Cinnamomum glanduliferum in Xiamen were investigated.The results showed that the worsening soil environment had severely limited the activity of tree roots and had a adverse effect on the growth of C. glanduliferum.The south-subtropical island climate is one of the main factors resulting in the fast growing and earlier senescence of camphor tree.Some suggestions for maintenance are also put forward.

摘要： 本文以邓小平在厦门市园林植物园的手植树为例,对云南樟的生物学特性、资源分布及在厦门地区的引种情况进行分析,认为:厦门植物园内云南樟生长异常的重要原因是根系活动环境恶化;厦门南亚热带海岛气候条件是导致其速生、提前衰老的主要原因之一,并提出相应的养护管理措施。
