Overview of Chickweed Species

Although, according to legend, there are 366 species of Chickweed, big and small, but legends are legends after all, and 366 species are really hard to find. In real life, the species of Chickweed can be roughly divided into four categories, Chickweed, Large-leaf Chickweed, Glass Chickweed and Small-flowered Chickweed. Among them, Chickweed is the most common and the others are some variants. The general shape and performance do not change, only some very slight differences. Next we will introduce these types of Chickweed one by one.


Chickweed

The most common and most visible chickweed can be used as medicine, but it is also a poisonous plant. If used properly, it can reduce swelling, relieve pain, promote lactation, etc. However, if livestock accidentally eat this plant, they are likely to die. Therefore, chickweed must be used reasonably and not blindly. In addition, the height of this chickweed plant is about ten to twenty centimeters. The flowers it blooms are pure white and relatively small. It is a herbaceous plant.

Chickweed

Small-flowered Chickweed is a variant of Chickweed. Its function and color have not changed much. As the name suggests, the flowers of this chickweed are slightly smaller. The plant height of small-flowered Chickweed is roughly between ten and twenty-five centimeters, and the flowers are fragrant.


Chickweed

The characteristic of large-leaf chickweed is that its leaves are slightly larger than those of all other chickweeds and their varieties. Of course, the functions and medicinal value of large-leaf chickweed and chickweed are the same.


Glasswort

It grows mostly in temperate and tropical regions. The flowers are mostly blue and have relatively high ornamental value. From a distance, they look like glass beads, hence the name Liuli Fanlu.
