Tahuang is a plant of the genus Liao in the Liao family. When the plant blooms, a yellow-green pagoda will be extracted from the stems and leaves, so it is called Tahuang. The adult plant reaches a height of 2 meters after flowering. When it blooms, it emits a special fragrance to attract small insects to lay eggs and pollinate. Although Tahuang has not been listed as a wild plant under national key protection, it is still very rare and cannot be pulled out or eaten. It is very precious.

1. Understanding Tahuang

Tahuang is a plant of the genus Liao in the Liao family. It is a perennial herb. It is named after the yellow pagoda it displays during the flowering period. It grows at an altitude of more than 4,000 meters. The cold areas of the mountains are constantly resisting barrenness, low temperatures, strong winds and ultra-strong ultraviolet rays.

2. The small world in Tahuangli

After the adult pagoda blooms, the plant will reach a height of about 2 meters. The yellow flowers (bracts) are interlaced and stacked on top of each other, becoming smaller and smaller as they go up, forming an airtight pagoda-like shape, like a building. The greenhouse on the high mountain protects the small flowers hidden inside. After flowering, the flowers will emit a special aroma, attracting mushroom mosquitoes to come in for pollination. After pollination, the flowering plants will produce a large number of fruits, although some of the seeds become food for the mushroom larvae (the mushroom mosquitoes come in). (lay eggs), but if there are no mushroom mosquitoes to pollinate, Tahuang will not be able to produce seeds, let alone continue to reproduce!

3. The preciousness of Tahuang

Although Tahuang has not been listed as a nationally protected wild plant, its number is extremely rare because of its harsh growing environment. If you encounter it while traveling, please do not destroy its growth environment. Do not pull it out or eat it. It is really precious and needs to be cared for by each of us.
