There is a kind of flower called Jiulian, which just likes to bloom on the eve of thunder and lightning and wind and rain. So everyone calls it "Wind and Rain Flower" to predict the change of the weather.

Leek lotus is an herb of the genus Lycoris, which is shaped like daffodils and blossoms in full bloom.

Before the rainstorm, the weather is usually very muggy, the transpiration of plants increases, and the flowering hormones in its bulbs multiply rapidly, stimulating the growth of flower buds, so that the flowers bloom and make people intoxicated.

two。 Cyclobalanopsis glauca

There is a 100-year-old Cyclobalanopsis glauca tree in Longding Village, Xincheng County, Guangxi Province, China. Its leaf color will change with the weather. People often call it a "weather tree".

Cyclobalanopsis glauca is more common in the south of China. On a sunny day, the leaves are green. The leaves turn red before a long drought or rain. The leaves returned to their original green after the rain.

Cyclobalanopsis glauca is magical because it is very sensitive to climatic conditions, and the ratio of chlorophyll to anthocyanin in leaves varies with climate.

After the rain, the synthesis of anthocyanins was inhibited and the leaf color returned to green. According to this information, local farmers learn about the weather, arrange farm work, and even regard it as a "sacred tree".

Purple jasmine usually blossoms in the evening and wilts the next morning. According to the time when the flowers withered, we can judge the weather conditions of the day. If the flowers wither as soon as the day is light, it indicates that it will be sunny. If the flowers wither later, it is a sign that the day will be cloudy and rainy.

Pumpkin vine, native to Mexico to Central America, is widely cultivated all over the world. It was introduced into China in the Ming Dynasty and is now widely planted in the north and south.

The top of the pumpkin vine usually grows slowly down and forward, but if the top of the pumpkin vine is found to be generally upward on a summer morning, it indicates that the weather will change from sunny to rainy. If the top of pumpkin vine is generally found to be down in cloudy and rainy weather, it is a sign that the weather will clear up.
