Fascinating facts about flowers
some fascinating flower facts in simple points:
- Sunflower: Sunflowers track the sun! They face east in the morning and follow the sun’s path until sunset, a phenomenon called heliotropism.
- Corpse Flower: The corpse flower is massive and stinky! It’s among the largest flowers and emits a foul odor resembling rotting flesh when it blooms.
- Mimosa: The Mimosa pudica, or sensitive plant, closes its leaves when touched. It’s like they’re shy or playing a game of hide-and-seek!
- Cobra Lily: The cobra lily, found in the Himalayas, resembles a cobra ready to strike. Do you know? It’s a carnivorous plant that traps insects! Literally.
- Hydrangeas: Hydrangea flowers change color based on soil acidity. Acidic soil makes them blue, while alkaline soil turns them pink! Isn’t it incredible?
- Orchids: Orchids have amazing diversity! They come in all shapes and sizes, with over 25,000 documented species worldwide. OMG!
Flowers are full of surprises, from sun-tracking sunflowers to shy mimosa plants and even the stinky drama of the corpse flower!
