[family genus] Cruciferae, flexion flower genus.

[form] Annual erect herbs, much branched, 15-30 cm tall, pilose. Leaves opposite, oblanceolate to spatulate, 3mm long, apex obtuse, with a few large and irregular obtuse teeth. The flowers are white and fragrant. There are 4 petals and 2 petals outside. Florescence 5m / m-June. Flowers gather to form terminal globose Cymes, but soon elongate, resulting in racemes 5-15 cm long. The base of short siliques is subrounded, the seeds are flattened, and the weight of 1000 seeds is 2.6 grams.

[varieties, forms and varieties] there are large flower species and dwarf species, about 15 cm high, with round clusters.

[propagation] it was sown in pot at the beginning of September in autumn, and the optimum temperature for germination was 20 ℃.

[cultivation] after the cotyledons of the seedlings were unfolded, they were transplanted once in a collapsed basin, then they were transferred to a 3-inch basin, and then turned to a 5-inch basin to overwinter in a cold bed. They were planted on the ground in late March next spring, with a distance of 30 cm. Extensive management.

The mature period of pod is irregular, so it is suitable to harvest the whole mature inflorescence in fractions. Be careful not to expose the fruit to the sun too much, otherwise it is easy to lose its germinating power.

[use] it is suitable for flower beds, flower border materials, or potted plants. Dwarf species are especially suitable for marginal materials. (this article is excerpted from the whole book "Rural farming")
