This world is always filled with strange things, ranging from unusual phenomena, funny animals, even human beings also come strangely. Well, for those of you who like or are curious about all those strange themes, this time, I will present an exciting summary of the most unusual plants in the world. Not only the shape, but the name is also strange. Curious right? Let's read it!
Eits, for having trypophobia, be careful.
1. Devil's Finger Mushroom
Wow, the name is terrible, isn't it! Yup, plants with the Latin name Clathrus Archeri have a red color and resemble a demon's finger. Initially, this fungus is in the form of an egg, and then it will bloom and extend its fingers, which amount to four to seven segments. Aside from being shaped, this fungus also produces a foul odor. Ish, let's not get too close!
Even so, this habitable mushroom in Australia and New Zealand turns out to be edible, guys. However, those that have bloomed, huh. Because if it is still an egg, it contains poisons that are dangerous to consume. Among them can make shortness of breath and convulsions.
Already the name and shape are horrible, smelly, dangerous too!
2. Monster Mouth Flowers
Flowers with the name Hydnora Africana, as the name suggests, have habitat in South Africa. They have often nicknamed Monster Mouth because the shape of the petals resembles a mouth and looks terrible. Flowers that are parasites have a pungent odor like feces. It must be smelly. However, the fruit inside the flower seems to be used as a medicine for dysentery, bladder, kidney, and even acne. Hmm, it's quite useful, guys.
3. Bloody Dental Fungus
Plants with other names Peckii Hydnellum has a white cross-section with red liquid beads that resemble blood. The red liquid comes from the osmosis process called Guttation, where when the soil is too wet, the water will rise through the surface of the fungus. Well, this pigment in the fungus makes the liquid red. This mushroom also has teeth at the bottom which are often referred to as demon teeth.
4. Doll's eyes
The fruit included in this type of Berry has the name White
Baneberry. Having a white round fruit with a black tip makes this fruit often referred to as the Doll's Eye. Although including berries, this fruit cannot be eaten. Even referred to as a prohibited plant to be approached, because it has a high and dangerous Cardiogenic toxin. It can also make a toddler's heart stop.
5. Alien flowers
The Latin name of this flower is Welwitschia Mirabilis and grows in the deserts of Africa. They called Alien flowers because it has a strange shape, unlike other plants. This flower only has one stem and two leaves that grow sideways. The leaves themselves can widen and extend to seven meters. Plants with leaves that have the most stomata in the world are also often referred to as Desert Swordsmen, because of their ability to survive up to five years without water while his age can reach 400-1500 years.
6. Drosera / Sun Dew
This beautiful flower has habitat in Alaska and New Zealand. It is referred to as Sun Dew because it has crystalline granules resembling dew on each end of its tentacles. The shape is unusual, guys. Don't be fooled by its beautiful form; in fact, this flower is one of the insectivorous carnivores.
Yup. So, the dew-like liquid is mucus, which serves as a trap for insects to be tied and eaten. Each insect is perched, the flower will reflexively curve and roll insects inside.
Wow, horror, guys. Fortunately, only the food insects. What about humans?
Okay, guys, I think it's quite a review of this exotic plant. What? Just make it shudder.
