1. Is it toxic?If classified according to the shape of the leaves, this flower can be divided into two types. One has relatively broad leaves and is called leek orchid. The other has relatively slender leaves that resemble onions and is called leek orchid. Both belong to the Amaryllis family and are poisonous. Chives and onions, which look very similar to them, both belong to the Liliaceae family. We usually call these two orchids collectively Zephyranthes, but they are both inedible. Allium orchid contains an alkali and the petals contain a glycoside. If its bulbs are eaten without a doctor's guidance, it can cause vomiting, diarrhea, etc. If you accidentally eat too much, it can cause skin allergies, chest tightness, and dizziness. Especially in the summer, skin problems are more likely to occur. 2. Other functionsIt can be used for viewing, and it can also be used as a traditional Chinese medicine in doctors' prescriptions. The whole plant can be used as medicine to dissipate heat, eliminate toxins, cool blood, treat wounds, etc., and it can also purify the air. 3. Maintenance TipsIf it is a hot season, keep the soil slightly moist. Even if it is knocked down by strong winds, it can still stand up the next day and is very strong. Be sure to use soil that is loose enough and well-drained to grow it, and add some decomposed organic fertilizer to the pot to make it have more side buds and flowers. It is very interesting. Every time after it rains, its flowers are particularly bright and beautiful. |
