Morphological and physiological characteristics of bullwhip.

Bullwhip is a kind of millet with developed root system. If you are good at "grasping the ground", it is difficult to "pull out" the soil. Burdock stems are clustered, and the base is inclined around, and the plant height is generally 10 ~ 70 cm. Leaf sheaths are flat and ridged on both sides, relatively loose, hairless or sparsely verrucous. The tongue length of bullwhip leaf is about 65438±0mm；; Leaves slightly spreading, generally10-15cm long, 3-5mm wide, glabrous or slightly pilose.

Cowhide grass mainly grows in the wilderness, near fields or sporadic open spaces. Like sunshine and warm climate, the requirements for soil are not strict, and it can grow normally in almost all soil environments. Because of the developed root system, it is very drought-tolerant. Bullwhip has poor cold resistance. When the autumn wind blows, the stems on the ground will wither and die. However, underground roots usually don't die. When the next spring, new aboveground stems and leaves will germinate and rejuvenate.

Although some medical classics say that it has the effect of "clearing away heat and toxic materials, removing blood stasis and stopping bleeding", its effect is minimal! Almost negligible. Moreover, there are many fibers and poor palatability, which means that pigs and sheep don't like it! However, it has good windbreak and sand fixation functions and can be planted in desert areas.

Niujincao has tenacious vitality. After being eaten by cattle and sheep, it will grow rapidly in a short time. Tendons still have high value as pasture. Tendon is not only used as pasture, but also has certain medicinal functions, and is also used in many folk prescriptions. In addition to these uses, in hot summer, tendons can also be made into herbal tea. Chopped tendons can be boiled, added with a small amount of rock sugar, and cooled before drinking. This is a good drink in summer. It has a good effect on eliminating anger. Although cattail grass has many uses, it is still a kind of harmful grass that is difficult to remove and one of the most annoying weeds in our countryside.

In a word, cattail is a kind of weed with strong vitality. Besides, the quality of grass is so poor that neither pigs nor sheep like it. Apart from the function of preventing wind and fixing sand, it is of little use. So, who can say what is the super effect of ox tendon grass? You can hit your face.
