In nature, humans have discovered about 350,000 plants, only a small part of the plants that can be exposed to in daily life, and the proportion of plant varieties used for ornamental viewing is even smaller.
How magical the plants created by nature can be? Maybe humans will never fully see them in their lifetime. Perhaps this article can give you a glimpse of it.
The plant with the smallest leaves in the world is the vermilion
The vermilion , which is the most common leaf-viewing green plant in our lives and the plant with the smallest leaves in the world. The plant shape of the vermistor is very unique. The long branches we usually see are actually its stems; the tiny "leafs" that can be seen with the naked eye are actually its branches. The real vermistor leaves cannot be seen with the naked eye. After millions of years of evolution, the leaves gradually transform into white scales, hidden under leaf-like branches, and can only be discovered through magnifying glasses or microscopes.
cotton is not flower
Is cotton a flower? This question seems boring, but in fact many people don’t know that cotton is not a flower. Cotton is botanically a plant of the genus Malvaceae. Its flowers are actually light yellow, and the small one is also very cute. Let me give you a photo of cotton flowers.
After the cotton seeds mature, the seeds will naturally crack, and the white plant fibers inside are exposed, which is what we often call "cotton". So cotton is actually part of the seeds.

Touch will affect the growth of flowers and plants
Seeing some beautiful flowers and plants, many people will always resist touching them with their hands. On the surface, it seems that it does not do anything to the plant, but can satisfy human desire to touch. In fact, the temperature of human hands is much higher than the air temperature. Touching plants with hands is equivalent to using a high-temperature soldering iron to burn on people's bodies, which will affect the growth of flowers and plants. If you touch the plant for a long time, it may also cause disorders in the body's mechanisms. So when we usually appreciate flowers and plants, just look at them with our eyes, and try not to touch them with our hands.
Crabenzoi flowers are "tickle"
Crabenzoi flowers are planted in many southern cities' green belts, communities and parks. June of each year is the flowering period of zimuth , and clusters of bright flowers bloom warmly and unrestrainedly. It is said that "there is no flower that has a hundred days of red", but the crape myrtle flower is also called "a hundred days of red".
Crabenzia is a plant that is actually very "irritated". If you touch the trunk of Crabenzia with your hands, its branches will shake and tremble violently, and make a creaking sound, as if it scratches its "ittingling flesh". This is because the branches on the top of the crape myrtle are almost as thick as the roots, and are prone to heavy heads and light feet, and unstable center of gravity. When people touch crape myrtle branches, the plant can easily shake and make sounds.
Flowers blooming are sound
Beautiful flowers always make people feel comfortable, but have you carefully watched the entire opening process of it? In fact, flowers bloom with sound. When the flowers bloom, sounds will be made as the flower organs move, but this sound remains weak and is generally difficult for the human ear to detect. Only in extremely quiet states can recordings with the help of scientific instruments be heard. After research, scientists have found that the sounds of different varieties of flowers when they bloom are different. Some are crisp, some are low, and some are high-pitched, which is very interesting.
Are the flowers in the homes of flower lovers blooming? Although it is very weak, I believe that it will make a sound when it blooms, saying, "I'm going to bloom, have you seen it?"
