When I got up in the morning and looked out the window, a red figure amazed me. How can this pot of white flowers with clear blooms of calamus have a red figure last year? Pushing open the glass window, four peach-red calamus lotus flowers bloomed toward the sun, the flower buds were consistently outward, and Tingting Yu stood in the breeze at the beginning of the morning sun.
Animals change color, do plants also change color, and different seasons will bloom flowers of different colors?
When she went to her sister's house in September last year, she said that the calamus she bought could not be planted in a pot, and she must give me a few. I saw a few small buds in detail, and I didn't want to be enthusiastic, so I had to take them and plant them in a small pot, water them thoroughly, and didn't ask again.
When I saw it again, it was a week later, and the delicate young leaves had grown to more than one piece (about 17 or 18 centimeters) long, densely packed with small pots, maybe they were too wronged, how to grow so densely?
After considering moving it into a larger pot, a week later it was watered with half a bag of expired milk, a small basin of water, and a layer of soil was added to cover it later.
Every day I saw its leaves growing with all their might, and the long leaves began to hang out of the pot, and no matter how I moved the pot, there was time for one night, sometimes two nights, and all the leaves must be long and stretched out of the window.
With its strong phototropism, I found the first bud in the struggle with it, surprised that it could still bloom in cold weather, so I sent the picture to my younger sister, who said that when she bought it, the flower color was not white, it was bright pink.
I said that the merchant must have sent her the wrong goods, and the red flowers turned into white flowers. She also didn't know that the flowers would change color with the change of seasons, and could only say that it might be.
In the severe cold of winter, most of the long leaves dried up and turned yellow, because I did not like that its small white flowers had a short flowering period, so I casually placed it on the balcony.
It stayed quiet all spring, and when summer came, it didn't see any flowers, and I thought it would only bloom in late autumn and early winter, so I didn't have any expectations for it.
A heavy rain, cloudy and sunny for a few days did not go to water the flowers outside the balcony, today's stunning is really unexpected.
Calamus lotus, scientific name leek lotus, alias carnelian, calamus lotus, wind and rain flower, wind and rain orchid, leek orchid. It is a perennial herb of the genus Allium in the family Lycaenidae, congested.
The reason why the lotus flowers change color is to attract different insects to help them spread pollen. Growing in the mountains of the southwestern United States, the red calamus usually blooms in mid-July, just as hummingbirds migrate from the highlands to the lowlands, and the red flowers attract hummingbirds to help spread pollen.
After the hummingbird leaves, the calamus mainly relies on moths to spread pollen, moths like white flowers, and calamus flowers change the color of the flowers to attract new pollen spreaders. According to statistics, about 40% of red calamus flowers will become white flowers.
In order to gain the favor of moths, calamus takes the initiative to attract insects that help themselves, and people should also learn to adapt to the new social environment and human environment, and live faster and easier.
