Abstract:The crabapple blossom is a renowned traditional flower in China, highly esteemed by aristocratic literati during the Tang and Song dynasties, and has inspired many culturally significant poems. This study analyzed 896 poems from these periods using text mining methods to extract crabapple's natural aesthetic features, landscape elements, humanistic emotions, and geographical data. QGIS is used to visualize their spatial distribution. Key findings indicate that crabapple's aesthetic perception shifted from monochromatic to dynamic layering, from broad to detailed depictions, and from Taoist-inspired to feminine personifications. In landscaping, the blossom was associated with six elements: flora, fauna, scale, horticultural activities, natural environments, and seasonal contexts. Culturally, dominant themes included lamenting fleeting spring, nostalgia for home, noble solitude, maidenly yearning, and patriotic devotion. Spatial analysis reveals the crabapple's distribution widened from a single core in Sichuan to multiple centers across regions.
