Protection

Torreya grandis is a second class protected plant in China. On May 29, 2013, at the International Forum on global important agricultural cultural heritage held in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, the ancient Torreya grandis group in Kuaijishan, Shaoxing was recognized as a global important agricultural cultural heritage. The ancient Torreya grandis group of Shaoxing Kuaiji mountain is located in the central and southern part of Shaoxing City, covering an area of about 400km2. There are 105000 strong Torreya grandis trees, of which more than 72000 are more than 100 years old, and thousands are more than 1000 years old. More than 2000 years ago, the ancestors of Shaoxing artificially selected and grafted Torreya grandis from wild Torreya grandis, and developed this fine variety. Because of artificial grafting, there are many obvious "bracket" shaped grafting scars on the base of the existing ancient Torreya grandis. The ancient Torreya grandis is still fruitful after thousands of years. It can be regarded as the "living specimen" of ancient improved variety breeding and grafting technology, and is of great value.
