Distinguish the lotus from the Merry Pavilion in a way that Sherlock could not have imagined.

Recently, I have seen some sellers mistook the lotus for a Meriger.

There are some incorrect versions of the varieties.

So today, let's talk about the difference between Manlian and Melig.

First of all, let's talk about the lotus.

Red lotus = lotus, that is, ordinary lotus, plus red is also common lotus.

Manlian GraptopetalumMACDOUGALLII

The leaf is narrower, the tip of the leaf is sharp, the texture is transparent, and the thickness of the leaf is sometimes thicker, the tip of the leaf will appear slightly pink in the light, and gradually spread to the whole leaf.

Then there is Melig, Melig = Emerald Tower. Meilig xGraptoveriaJade í ta, the hybrid parent is Parentage:GraptopetalummacdougalliixEcheveriaspec. Magnolia mandshurica * some stone lotus.

In terms of plant characters, Melig has longer lateral branches and creeping growth, while Melig is a typical small variety with leaves 2.5-3.5cm long, while Melig is a large variety with a maximum rosette diameter up to 12cm. Meriger has a typical wide leaf character, while Manglian has narrow and pointed leaves in diameter.

However, since it is difficult to distinguish the thickness and width of leaves when the plant is small, how should we distinguish it? After observation, I found that the two leaf growth patterns are very characteristic. First of all, we number the leaves according to the growth rate of the leaves, and then connect them.

The interesting phenomenon is that we can observe that all the odd-numbered leaves of Meriger overlap in turn, and all the even-numbered leaves overlap in turn, and although the first few leaves overlap at the beginning (the leaves at the growth point are dense, there is no overlap after that), this characteristic runs through the growth stages of the two varieties.

That is, the leaves of the lotus are narrower and longer, and the Melig leaves are wider and longer and tighter.

And very beautiful candy-colored lotus.
