Rooted in the Ground: Undesirable Invasive Species

Sedum, rooting, perennial herb.

Rooted in the ground, you can know from the name that the reproduction rate of this plant is very high, and each piece is an excellent breeder, and it is properly endless. The first time I saw it was in the tile house in my hometown. Even more surprising, it can grow on the roof. Now I think it's because the soil for building a house is mixed with seeds that have taken root or floated from other places. It is really fresh in my memory to see that the outline of each leaf is covered with young trees that take root and sprout.

Rooted in the ground, also known as the immortal bird, it is 40- 150 cm high and has branched stems. The leaves are thick, round and oval, and the reproductive plants grow on the edge of the leaves like rows of dancing butterflies. When the buds grow up, they become a new plant. 1-March is its flowering period, and the flowers are reddish or purple like bells.

This species is native to South Africa's island of Da Gasga, and it can be called an "invincible" invasive species because of its extremely easy reproduction. You can get a whole leaf by planting one plant, and many offspring can be cultivated by leaves alone, not to mention seeds. Drought and cold resistance, strong adaptability. Especially in the warm and humid environment with plenty of sunshine, the growth is gratifying and the flowers bloom more brightly.

Rooted plants are beautiful, tall and thin, and new plants with long leaves look like a group of small butterflies, which is quite interesting. Planting potted plants is a good material for windowsill greening, and can also be used to decorate study and guest rooms. Summer should be slightly shaded, and there should be enough light at ordinary times, otherwise the color of the leaf edge will disappear; Those who like green eyes can be placed in a cool place.
