preface:
Recently, I received a special submission from the Encyclopedia Jun's submission mailbox, which was sent by a 13-year-old small meat friend in Foshan, Guangdong Province, and the email said:
Hello Encyclopedia Jun, I am a 13-year-old boy. There are really not many boys as old as me who are so focused on studying plants that I am regarded as a freak. My parents were also extremely opposed to my meat, and they threw away my flesh, and I cried for a long time. But then I changed direction, I began to delve into wild meat, and I found that the temperament of wild meat coincided with mine, they had to be wary of animal predation and trampling, to withstand the dry air and fierce sunlight, and even a boulder pressed overhead. I also grew strong in the face of adversity. Now, with wild meat and literature, I am also very satisfied!
I "met" a photographer online a long time ago, Dutch National Etwin Aslander. He took thousands of stunning photos of South Africa's wild plants. But I only got in touch with him last month, and now he's a pen pal and I interact a lot. He told me that he was very happy that his photos were shared, with his support, I had previously posted a post in Baidu Tieba and now it is a boutique, specifically introducing the exhibition of his works and wild meat, this post has received praise and love from everyone (just after the post there is a public account to the cottage), my confidence is also there, this time I tried to contribute on the platform of Encyclopedia Jun, which is well known to everyone, and also hopes to be able to make headlines, if you can, this is undoubtedly my support and encouragement! Thank you to all the people who have supported me. My dream in the future is to be admitted to a foreign major in botany, finish my phD, and specialize in plants!
Since the ancient hero came out of the youth, let us follow the introduction of this little meat friend to approach the wild succulents of South Africa and explore the beauty of those lives in the adversity of the wild!

I'm a very special meat lover, because well, I'm only 13 years old, and I'm still a boy, of course, it's weird, right? Anyway, when my classmates were playing the glory of the king, I was studying the distribution area of meat, habits and environment, taxonomic naming, species and genera and primitive species, variants, subspecies, brocade, embellishment, hybridization and so on. However, my parents really hate meat people, I can't raise meat at home, and the meat that I once carefully cared for has been cruelly broken! There are also those who have been stepped on, and they have been raised to death by relatives of the Party, but they have been killed by people anyway, and the beautiful meat photos taken before have also been deleted by their parents. I cried for a long time about this. My academic performance is in the top five of the grade and the Olympic Number English has won the award, the specialty sports are not bad, they are not satisfied, hey! Say more uncomfortable, don't say...
As a boy, I also do not have a particularly large feeling for a lot of small and cute meat, but I greatly appreciate the wild South African meat, for a simple reason: domineering, gritty, strong, but not lacking in beauty.
Although the pine bamboo plum has its own strengths, it is not as good as a multi-pulp plant. Pine, rooted in the cliff edge of the lush growth, vigorous and powerful, but lack of color of the beauty; bamboo, firmly grasping the green mountains do not relax, the roots are in the broken rock, but it is a hollow, inevitably not strong; plum, fragrant and elegant, fresh and vulgar, but the beauty is not long, occasionally encounter the wind and the branches fall. But meat, both can withstand the harsh environment, but also firm and powerful, stable and strong, and can maintain bright colors for a long time, occasionally bloom beautiful flowers, presumably, this is the reason why everyone loves meat, and the most prominent place to highlight the characteristics of meat and meat may be their wild environment.
The reason why I fell into the pit of wild meat is because of the protagonist I want to introduce today: today I am a photographer of Dutch nationality and meat lover: Etwin Aslander. He's also my pen pal and we often discuss exchanges.
Once, I accidentally saw his wild meat photos on the Internet, and suddenly felt the wild and rugged beauty, for me, this is more attractive than domestication, I "once into the meat pit as deep as the sea, but the wallet also coexists", haha, just kidding.
Etwin's photos are really very surprising, under his camera, wild meat, whether small or domineering or beautiful or calm and steady, are extremely life-rich beauty, he told me that although he also raises some apricots and green lock dragons, but without the company of wild meat, his life will be boring. So today we're going to take a look at the wild meat! (All photos are licensed by Etwin Aslander)

I also have an ideal, now work hard, in the future study abroad to get a doctorate in botany, and then immerse myself in the study of plants, especially desert plants, for human use.
Encyclopedia Jun fragmented thoughts: This is a small meat friend who deserves our thumbs up, he loves meat at the age of 13 and has a rare maturity of his peers, but after reading the first paragraph, I feel a little uncomfortable, I don't know why parents oppose their children's hobbies, may be afraid of affecting learning, but as the child said, his grades are not bad, and he knows his direction and goals, and works hard for it! As long as it does not affect learning, I think this is a very good and encouraging thing, and I hope that his parents can treat their children's hobbies correctly and cultivate and guide them.
In other words, when we were 13 years old, we forgot what we were doing, if we had the dedication and persistence of the author of this article, it is estimated that the Nobel Prize in botany is now promising!
