"The plant, a type of rhubarb, has specially designed leaves that channel rain water to its roots It is the only known plant in the world able to self-irrigate. The adaptation allows the rhubarb to flourish in extreme arid conditions by collecting up to 16 times more water than other plants in the region, say the scientists who published details of the discovery in Naturwissenschaften."
The Skunk Cabbage heats itself. If you are in New England in March, look at swampy
areas and you will spoit them Generally, if you look at the base of the plant in the snow, you will see that it has knocked off a few pounds himself
From 1993, Scientific Magazine comes: Some species of underwater plants, such as the Zostera marina species of eelgrass, produce blossoms and pollen and reproduce by underwater pollination. Pollination occurs when the noodle-like pollen structures stick together and come in contact with stigmas of female plants in shallow pools.
From what I hear, I'd rather be a pig!
A problem with self-pollination is like incest...fear being that gene errors will just get worse as they get strengthened by the loading.
Orchids have peculiarities
Some can grow above ground and some below.
Let's raise a toast to Nature daring us to be different.
