What is the function of dancing grass

The ornamental value of dancing grass

There are many linear leaflets on both sides of the leaves of Dancing Grass, so it is very sensitive to sound waves. It is easy for it to swing its branches up and down continuously under the stimulation of sound waves, just like a graceful dancing girl, hence its name, and it has a high ornamental value. It is far different from ordinary ornamental plants. We can appreciate its beautiful form dancing freely as the environment changes, which has unique interest. It is now widely used in gardening design and is also an excellent choice for bonsai production.

Medicinal effects of dancing grass

Dancing grass not only has extremely high ornamental value, but also has medicinal and health-care value. The whole plant can be used as medicine, so it can be said that the whole plant is a treasure. There is a clear record of this in the Compendium of Materia Medica. The book mentions the wide range of effects and uses of dancing grass, which can remove blood stasis, promote regeneration, relax muscles and tendons, treat fractures, or be soaked in wine and taken to strengthen muscles and bones and treat rheumatic pain. In addition, washing your face after soaking the fresh leaves in water can make your skin whiten and delicate, and have a beauty effect.

The scientific research value of dancing grass

Dancing grass is the only plant in nature that responds to sound. This rare characteristic has certainly attracted widespread attention from scientists. Scientific research shows that the dancing of dancing grass is affected by temperature, sunlight, and sound wave induction at a certain rhythm, tempo, and intensity. However, the specific reasons why the dancing grass dances remains an unsolved mystery and needs further research and exploration.
