reasonThe principle of how catnip emits its fragrance is very simple, just like the emergency measures people take when in danger. When you touch the leaves, they are stimulated, the stomata inside the plant expand, and a volatile substance diffuses into the air along the stomata. In fact, the catnip has always emitted fragrance, but it is usually light and not easily noticed. When stimulated and its defense awareness is enhanced, it will emit a strong fragrance, which is actually the plant's instinctive distress signal. effect1. AppreciationSuitable for potted viewing.
