Such flowers actually exist in daily life.
Recently, Zhang, a villager from Zhongzhai Village, Hexing Town, Dejiang County, Tongren City, Guizhou Province, discovered this? The flower of death? .
Zhang said that when he was picking mushrooms in the forest, he came across several white plants near the mushrooms. Since he had never seen them in his daily life, he took photos with his mobile phone for the first time, which was later recognized by the local forestry department. This mushroom-like botany is called crystal orchid.
According to professionals, Crystal Orchid is a very rare plant, which requires very high living environment, likes shading, and grows more easily in humid environment, especially in humus-rich environment. The ecological environment of this ancient forest in Guizhou fully meets the living conditions of Crystal Orchid.
Crystal orchids are white and do not need photosynthesis. They mainly get energy by absorbing nutrients from decaying plants. In nature, most plants are clustered and a few are solitary. Plant height is generally between 10 ~ 15cm. After thousands of years of evolution, its leaves gradually become white translucent scales, while flowers growing at the top of plants generally droop slightly and emit faint white light in a dim environment.
In addition, the crystal orchid is hermaphrodite and its growth cycle is not long. Generally, it germinates in spring and blooms and bears fruit in summer. After several months of growth cycle, it gradually turns gray-black. Matchhead? .
Although the novel is called Crystal Orchid? The flower of death? But in fact there is no connection between them.
Because the crystal orchid generally grows in a dark, humid and dim environment, and because it cannot carry out photosynthesis by itself, it has to rely on absorbing external energy to grow, so its growth environment is very bad, which is difficult for ordinary expedition members to find. At the same time, it is very precious because it cannot be cultivated artificially.
