Have you noticed that sometimes there is a layer of white things on the flowers, which looks particularly interesting and makes people want to explore it? What is this mysterious white membrane? Today, let me take you to solve this mystery together! Origin of flower white membrane
First of all, we need to know that the white membrane on flowers does not appear out of thin air. It is actually formed from a substance secreted by the flower itself. This substance is called "nectar" and is secreted by flowers to attract pollinators such as insects. Nectar is rich in nutrients such as sugar, amino acids, and vitamins, making it a delicacy for insects. The shape and color of white film
White film has different shapes, some like a layer of gauze, some like a layer of frost, and some like a layer of powder. In terms of color, most of them are white, but a few are light yellow or light green. The formation of this white membrane is related to factors such as flower variety, growth environment, and climatic conditions. The role of white membrane
So, what is the role of this white membrane? In fact, it mainly has the following functions: 1. Protective effect: White film can prevent flowers from being damaged by the external environment, such as ultraviolet light, rain, dust, etc. At the same time, it also prevents pests from infecting flowers.
2. Attract insects: The color and shape of the white membrane can attract insects to eat nectar, thereby helping flowers complete pollination.
3. Regulate moisture: White film has certain water-retaining ability and can help flowers retain moisture in dry environments. Disappearance of the white membrane. As time goes by, the white membrane will gradually disappear. This is because: 1. Insect feeding: When insects eat nectar, they will carry away the substances on the white membrane.
2. Natural decomposition: The substances in the white membrane will gradually decompose and eventually disappear.
3. Environmental factors: Environmental factors such as rain and sunshine can also lead to the disappearance of white film. Below the white membranes of common flowers, let's take a look at the white membranes of several common flowers: 1. Roses: The white film of roses is usually white and thick, which can protect the flowers from external harm.
2. Peony: The white film of peony is white, has thin texture, and has certain water retention ability.
3. Chrysanthemum: There will be white dots on the edge of the petals of chrysanthemum, which is a white substance secreted by chrysanthemum.
4. Peach blossom: The white film of peach blossom is white, has a thin texture, and has certain water-retaining ability.
Through today's introduction, I believe you have a deeper understanding of the white membrane on flowers. The next time you see the white film on a flower, you will definitely think of this article and sigh at the magic of nature! Remember, while appreciating flowers, you should also pay attention to the stories behind them!
