Salt-secreting grass

From Jinxi, Liaoning, China to Dianbai, Guangdong, there are dense Spartina in many places, like a green ribbon. This is a pasture for livestock, a paradise for birds and a habitat for coastal animals.

Spartina is a perennial herb of Gramineae, and it is a water-loving and salt-tolerant plant. Its stem is erect, its rhizome is thick, it can spread quickly, its leaves are linear and its regeneration ability is strong. Rice grassland is produced in British coastal areas, and grows well in China after introduction. After natural hybridization, it is higher than European Spartina and American Spartina.

The soil in the beach area contains a lot of salt and other plants can't grow. Only rice grass can grow.

In order to avoid excessive salt damage, Spartina does not accumulate salt in the body, but secretes salt through the salt glands on the back of leaves and excretes excess salt in the body. Liquid containing sodium chloride is secreted to the surface of leaves. After the water evaporates, the sodium chloride contained in the secretion slowly turns into salt crystals and remains on the surface of the leaves. These salts left on the surface of leaves fall off one by one after being washed by wind, rain and rain; Or in autumn, the leaves Huang Shi, along with the fallen leaves, leave the plant. People call this salt-secreting plant a salt-secreting plant.

Plants with special salt secretion function are not only Spartina, such as petaloid flowers growing in Gansu and Xinjiang, Mayatou growing by the sea, Avicennia marina in mangrove, Tamarix chinensis and Populus euphratica.

Try drunken grass.

In a bar in Melbourne, Australia, the owner planted a strange mimosa. People who drink too much just touch it, and the branches and leaves will immediately roll up and droop, and then they will return to their original state.

Wind grass

In the virgin forest of Xishuangbanna, there is a dancing "wind grass" everywhere. It looks unremarkable and is shaped like a groundnut. But as long as you sing beautiful and moving songs to it, it will swing and dance with your singing. The two emblem leaves symmetrically born on the neck of the main leaf will also open and close with the singing, and the speed is consistent with the strength of the singing. Interestingly, if you blow it hard with your mouth or fan it violently, it will only shake the whole branch. As long as there is beautiful music, dancing can be aroused. Local Dai girls call it "wind grass".

The reason why Anemone can hear singing and dance is that the music cells of Anemone can relax and sweep in different degrees because of proper singing, thus causing the dancing of branches and leaves.

Turtle grass

There is a kind of grass in the desert area of southern Africa. Its stem is very short, its appearance has irregular patterns, and its whole body looks like a turtle shell, so it is called nigger grass. The shell of Turtle Grass is difficult to penetrate water, because there is often drought and little rain here, and Turtle Grass is fighting drought in this way. Strangely, when it rains, a green slender whip stem can be quickly pulled out of the "turtle shell" to absorb water. But if it dries suddenly, the branches and leaves will soon die, leaving only a "turtle shell".

The strange feeling of mimosa
