3. The bamboo grass water plants, thin water fleas and thick leaf leeches are representative species of tropical fish plants.
Stems clustered, erect, stout, cylindrical, 40-80 cm long or longer, often enclosed by a cylindrical sheath. Leaves multiple, linear draped appearance, thin leathery or papery, 8-20 cm long, 5-15 mm wide, base sheath; sheath length 2-4 cm. Inflorescences terminal, racemes or sometimes with 1-2 branches, with 2-10 flowers; flowers large, 6-7 cm in diam., pale purple, pink to white; sepals narrowly elliptic or narrowly elliptic. Length 2.5-4 cm, race 7-9 mm; Petals oval or ovate-elliptic, 2.5-4 cm long, 1.3-1.5 cm wide; lips close to oblong-ovate, 2.5-4 cm long, 3 Split; lateral lobes curved, encircling the column; middle lobes close to square, l-1.4 cm long; 3 or rarely 5 lamellae on the lip disc; cysts 2-2.5 cm long.
Growth habits:
Born in Kailuan grass slope; 400-2800 meters above sea level.
Fertility is strong, easy to cultivate, and ornamental value is also high. As this kind of aquatic grass can be cultivated with seeds, it can be produced in large quantities, so the price is relatively cheap and it is also a relatively popular plant.
Butterflies can also be artificially pollinated and seeded. When the mature mother plants stick out of the water and bloom in the air, they are pollinated with a tender brush. After the seeds mature, they are picked and sowed in a small tank about 5 cm thick. A few days later, white roots and small wavy juvenile leaves will grow. When the leaves grow to 10 cm long and the rhizomes are about 1 cm, they can be transplanted and cultivated in another place.
distributed:
Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, Hunan, Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, and Tibet;
Widely distributed in tropical Asia, north to the Ryukyu Islands, east to Tahiti.
In Xishuangbanna, our local compatriots of the Dai nationality called the beautifully-flowered bamboo orchids “agriculturistsâ€, which is a well-known drug for detoxification. It is said that a girl was dying of food poisoning (proverb "agriculture"). After the doctor diagnosed her, she told her (the proverb "Yao") to use boiled bamboo water to cook on the water. The girl took this medicine and she was sick. (Slang "å—¨"), Zhu Yelan's proverb comes from this name.
The name of the bamboo orchid is very large. Because of its large size and resemblance to reeds, it is known in Taiwan as a “grassland bluegrassâ€. Because its flower shape is somewhat like a bird, especially when viewed from a distance, it is very much like a Playful birds in the wild are also known as "bird blue." The name Latin name Arundina was taken from the Greek arundo (Reed).
The first was found in Nepal. In 1825, David Don first described the bamboo orchid according to the plant specimens collected from Nepal. In the same year, Carl Blume founded Arundina. There are about 8 species of this genus, which are widely distributed. They can be seen from Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, China, Japan and Malaysia.
The plants of the genus Bambusa are mostly blue and the plants are large, some of them can reach up to 1 meter. Its blades are 12-30 cm long and 1.6-2.5 cm wide. Inflorescences usually 15-30 cm long, flowers are very large, sometimes up to 10 cm in diameter, flowers resemble Carterian flowers, brightly coloured and scented. But the flowering period is not long, usually about 3 days. Bamboo is a very easy-to-growth orchid, and it has even become a local wild orchid in Hawaii.
Now, through the efforts of breeders, there are also some dwarf varieties available. Some varieties are only 15 cm tall at flowering and are very suitable for pot plants.
