When it comes to exotic plants, the first thing to say is venus flytrap. Venus flytrap looks like love. When it opens its leaves devoutly like a prayer, it will attract many small insects to climb into its "love". When it feels it, it will immediately close the leaves, but sometimes it will let go of some small and nutritious animals. It is both a "foodie" and a "picky eater".
"It's easy to catch insects this year and only accept pitcher plants as gifts." Nepenthes looks like a big sock or a big pocket, and some varieties are like a "toilet". The toilet seat is coated with honey. When insects climb to the toilet seat to lick honey, Nepenthes will close the toilet seat, let the insects fall into the nutrient solution, and then slowly digest it.
The first two are gorgeous, and grass should be regarded as a clear stream in the insect-catching plant world. The grass is covered with dew. The first ray of sunshine in the morning shines on it, and its "dew" is crystal clear, which is actually the mucus on the grass. A little mantis crept up the grass, and just when it wanted to get "dew", it had already touched the sensitive tentacles of the grass. The grass is rolled into a ball with a dead little mantis in the middle, which looks like a lollipop from a distance, so it is also called "death lollipop".
We must protect these wonderful plants so that all endangered plants will never disappear in this world!
Strange Plant Composition 2 Last year, my mother and I visited the Municipal Fruit Research Institute, where there were not only many fruit trees, but also many strange plants.
When we arrived at the botanical garden there, a guide showed us around the research institute. Walking, he stopped under a tall and straight tree and introduced the tree in front of us: "This is an oak tree called acorn, which can bear fruit. Those fruits will be astringent if they are not peeled, sour and sweet when peeled, and delicious. His branches can be used to make furniture, toys, utensils and so on. In our life, so it is a treasure. "
A little further, I saw a clump of tall plants similar to bananas. The tour guide once again said, "This is a tourist banana. They grow in the tropics. You can see that there is water in the stalks of its leaves with a knife, and their roots will stretch out in large numbers to absorb water. Passers-by don't have to worry about thirst and no water to drink. " After that, he pointed to the handle of half a leaf and told us that there was really a lot of water in it, just like the tour guide said. People on the sidelines are amazed. The original "tourist banana" is named like this.
There are many grotesque plants in the orchard, such as grafted pitaya and medicinal pistachios. It's really an eye-opener that plants have so many uses.
Strange Plant Composition 3 There is a strange tree in the yard downstairs of my house. The tree is not tall, the trunk is winding, and many branches are separated and intertwined, extending upward and spreading around, like children in kindergarten opening their arms to the blue sky.
Every year in the early spring, the spring breeze blows and the spring rain showers. This dead tree, which looks bare and dry, suddenly becomes full of vitality. Purple buds bloom all over the tree, just like wearing a purple cheongsam.
It blooms first and then grows leaves. Petals are like five-pointed stars, fat and tender and delicious. What is unusual is that it blooms not only on the branches, but also on the trunk. Although the flowers are small, they are very dense, one next to the other, tightly wrapping each branch, a string, petite and exquisite with purple light, short like Sugar-Coated Berry, long like a glow stick; More small flowers are clustered into three or five flowers, and seven or eight flowers are piled together and attached to the scars of the old branches of the trunk like colored balls. This is a glorious flower dedicated by Xiaohua to Mother Tree. From a distance, the flower tree looks like a burning fireball, and from a close distance, it looks like an open flower umbrella, which is particularly enchanting and full of spring against the background of green grass and trees.
This flower tree grows on the roadside, and its peculiar shape attracts many pedestrians to watch photography. People stare at it, as if listening to the mother of the tree saying, "Yes, it is monotonous when it blooms without the support of green leaves, without the brightness of peach blossoms and the fragrance of plum blossoms;" But it is nothing to abandon the green leaves and accumulate nutrients, so that the flowers of the whole tree have spring, and it is nothing to reduce some face values! "
Some people say that this tree is a peach tree, while others say that it is Huang Huai of Chimonanthus praecox, but it is not. My grandfather consulted a plant expert. It is bauhinia, which has high ornamental value and medicinal value.
Strange Plant Composition 4 Today, I read a book. There is a chapter in this book about plants that behave strangely. The article mentioned many strange plants that I had never heard of. Now let me talk about them!
The mysterious fruit is an oval red fruit, only 2 cm long. If you eat a little mysterious fruit, after a while, try other fruits, and sour fruits will become extremely sweet. There is also Selaginella, a nine-dead regrowth grass, which grows in dry rock crevices or on hillsides at an altitude of 200-500 meters. Its specialty is to curl the body to keep moisture, so that it can grow in the gap of drought and water shortage and large temperature difference. Selaginella is extremely drought-tolerant, and often "dies" due to lack of water, but it will recover after getting water, so it is called "nine dead resurrection grass".
There are also defensive plants, such as cactus and acacia, which protect themselves by long thorns, while mimosa protects itself by closing its leaves. There is also a strange scorpion grass with bristles and thorns on its stems and leaves. The front ends of these hairs are sharp as thorns, and the roots can secrete formic acid, which has a strong stimulating effect on people and animals. Once people and animals touch them, the tips of the bristles will break and release formic acid, which makes the "criminals" feel itchy and afraid to touch it again. and ...
Through reading this book, I know that there are many strange plants in the world, and there are many magical things waiting for us to discover and understand.
Strange Plant Composition 5 Xishuangbanna National Primitive Forest Park is a lovely place with beautiful scenery in Yunnan Province.
Primitive forest park is a huge forest kingdom. As soon as I entered the park gate, I saw green eyes, huge banana trees and various small plants. They are different in height, and the branches and leaves that cover the sky are filled with thick morning fog, becoming natural oxygen bars. Here you can see all kinds of rare tree species in virgin forests such as tropical rain forest and south subtropical broad-leaved forest, and there are more than 30 kinds of ferns and gymnosperms preserved, all of which are living fossils of plants 100 million years ago!
At noon, walking on a wonderful path paved with bamboo, looking up, thousands of golden sunshine shone on tourists' faces like a sword through the treetops. There are lush trees, such as the sky-watching tree, the poison arrow tree with blood sealing the throat, 1700-year-old ancient tea tree, dancing grass, mosquito-eating flowers ... a wide variety of rare plants have opened the eyes of tourists. Walking on the path in the park, if you are thirsty, you can blow off a "pole vine" and break its roots, and it will spit out sweet and delicious juice; Don't worry if it rains. Here is a "natural umbrella". Cut off a taro leaf wide enough to shelter you from the wind and rain.
Primitive forest park is still a world of animals. Father-in-law elephants with long noses and big ears, green peacocks with colorful feathers, black and white swans, and tigers and leopards that haunt the forest at any time. ...
There are many kinds of fruits here, which are sweet and delicious all year round. There are bananas, pineapples, mangoes, sour plums, grapefruit, avocados, jackfruit and so on, which are very attractive to new local tourists.
Xishuangbanna is really a bright gem in southwest China!
