Recently, I found a strange plant, and I couldn't find the existence of roots, but I wrapped up a vegetable overnight, and I saw that the posture was still holding the vine, and it was like enclosing all the vegetables!
The name of this plant is yellow silk vine, also known as dodder silk, golden silk vine, rootless vine, etc. It is a very special plant that not only has no roots, but also no leaves. It is recorded in "Hug Puzi" that the root of the dodder is shaped like a rabbit, hence the name dodder seed.
In addition, because the dodder likes to parasitize and entangle on leguminous plants, it grows by absorbing its nutrients (the cane is wrapped around the main stem and branches, and the tangled branches produce scars, and the canes form suckers at the scars to absorb the nutrients of the tree. ), which is why some places call it "King of Beanyama". The stem of the dodder is golden in color, so it is also called yellow vine, yellow silk vine, and golden silk vine.
In fact, there is also the meaning of "spinning silk", which is the seed coat of its seeds after decoction with water, and the small yellow-white germ can be exposed, which is like the shape of silk, so it is called silk.
Cuscuta is a widely distributed plant that is native mainly to Asia, Africa, and Australia. It prefers hot and humid climates and is usually parasitic on a variety of plants such as legumes, Asteraceae, and Tribulaceae.
关于菟丝子有说是外来入侵物种，但也有资料显示菟丝子在中国古代文献《诗经》 中就有记载，表明其在中国有着较长的历史。 Therefore, although it is invasive, it cannot be generalized that all Cuscuta is an invasive species (e.g., Cinnamomum japonicus, Cuscuta vulgaris, and Cuscuta vulgaris are considered invasive alien plants).
Because it parasitizes crops and absorbs nutrients, it is known as the "vampire of the plant world", however, it not only has edible and nutritional value, but also has a wide range of medicinal properties (it is listed as a high-grade medicinal material and has a long history, known as a man's gas station and a women's beauty salon). ）。 So what if you hit it and let it continue to grow? Or do you want to pull it out decisively?
