According to Tang Bixin, a staff member of the Zhenba County Teaching and Research Office, on May 3, he found a grass sparrow flower behind the old house of Chen Fuguo, a villager in the Daijiashan Group in Huangba Village, Bamiao Town.
This plant has two large branches, the large branch has several small branches, and the small branch has several smaller branches. Among them, one of the largest and longest branches is more than 20 meters long, and the vine at the root is about 40 centimeters in diameter and forms a tree independently.
The other parts are 10 to 20 centimeters in diameter, and they either climb on the large tree next to them, or connect between other trees, forming a "giant net" between the forests.
Tang Bixin said that the whole grass sparrow vine from the root to the tip, evenly opened a cluster of purple-red flowers. The ground is also full of flowers, and swarms of bees are buzzing to collect pollen. Each finch resembles a bird: the head is golden yellow, the petals of the body and wings are purple-red, and the filaments on the tail are white.
Clusters of flowers are like flocks of birds or crowded pecking at vines and underground, and they seem to be flying in the air, lifelike and spectacular.
