What kind of flowers spread their seeds by the wind
The common flowers used to spread seeds are Zhaohe grass, thistle, hyacinth, cornflower and so on. These flowers generally have light seed weight, and the seed surface is smooth and dry, which is easy to be blown to a considerable height and distance by the wind. It is estimated that about 10% of angiosperms are wind-borne, and most of the oak, poplar and birch in Gramineae and woody plants are wind-borne plants. With the help of the wind, their seeds can rise to more than 2 kilometers with the help of the wind.
Other methods for plants to spread seeds
Different flowers have different ways to spread seeds, such as animal transmission, wind transmission, water transmission and ejection machinery transmission.
Coconuts and water lilies rely on water to spread seeds. When the coconut is ripe, the coconut falls into the sea and floats far away with the sea; the fruit of the water lily sinks to the bottom after ripening. When the pericarp is rotten, the seeds covered with a spongy outer seed coat float and float elsewhere.
There are also plants that rely on birds or other animals to spread, such as cherries, wild grapes, wild ginseng, etc., they all rely on birds or other animals to eat seeds into their stomachs, and because they cannot digest them, they are excreted and spread in all directions; in addition, pine nuts are taken away by squirrels when they store food for the winter.
There are also some plants that spread by mechanical transmission, such as impatiens, whose fruit will crack after ripening and send bullets to the four directions, which is a way to mechanically spread seeds. There are also many legumes that transmit seeds mechanically.
These are the main ways for plants to spread seeds. The colorful animals and plants in nature are worthy of our study and protection.
