The main value of five-leaf brocade

1. Ornamental effect

This is of course the first one we are going to talk about, and it is also the most important one. Looking at its pictures, you might think, how can it have ornamental value if it doesn’t have charming flowers? In fact, although it does not have charming flowers like some types of plants, its leaves are comparable. It has crisscrossing stems and vines, densely covered with aerial roots, and emerald green leaves like a barrier. In addition, its leaves change with the seasons. From late autumn to winter, its leaves will change from green to red or yellow, which is very interesting. In addition, it has tendrils that expand into suction cups when they encounter an object to attach to, which is very interesting. Also, don’t think that it has no flowers. Its flowers are yellow-green and very small, and the flowering period is around June. It also has small, spherical berries that are in season in October.

These characteristics make it one of the main types of vertical greening. It is suitable for planting in a variety of locations, such as yard walls, bridgehead streamside, park entrances, etc. In addition, it has a very obvious advantage, which is that it can prevent heatstroke. People who plant it will feel that their houses are very cool and comfortable in summer.

2. Environmental effects

Compared with other plants, this plant has a more obvious effect on the air, especially in removing harmful substances such as SO2, because it has very strong resistance to these harmful gases. Therefore, it can also be planted near industrial and mining plants.

3. Medicinal value

When talking about its value as a medicinal material, it mainly refers to its vines, stems, and roots.
