In spring, from Jiangnan to the Southwest Plateau, a cluster of purple elves decorated the earth. They are all plants of purple maggots. In the large sea of ​​flowers, there is a small flower named pointed purple.

The pointed distance is a kind of purple magpie. The name of the genus is in Greek, which means "Captain Poor", that is, "Hibari", which refers to the plants and flowers of the flowers like a bird's petite and beautiful.

In fact, their beautiful appearance is the "careful thinking" that plants spent for "passing the seizure". The "distance" in the "pointed distance" refers to the narrow part of the flower. When the insect drills the sharp honey water in the pointed flower distance, it can help them pass the powder.

The "close relatives" carved leaves of the pointed purple magpie have a more "hot" survival skill. As long as they touch the mature pods gently with their hands, they will crack from the fructic stalk at a very fast speed, and the cracking fruit pods will roll outwards to throw the seeds into the distance. Another "close relative" has no summer, and it is breed through the barrier -buried tuber. These skills can help purple plant plants to conquer a wider area.

Many purple -genus plants are also known as broken intestinal grass and sheep do not eat because they are toxic. However, the spikes can be used as medicine, sweet, light, small poison, can relieve swelling and pain, and can cure blood stasis, stomach pain, snake bite, scalp and swelling and so on. In addition, the pointed distance is also a good yin -resistant ornamental flower and soil and water conservation. It has high use value in the garden.
