There is a plant that has been called "pinched unevenly" since childhood. As for what the three words "pinching unevenly" are, they have never been delved into.
Until one day, a friend said: This grass is called uneven, no matter how you pinch its leaves, the fracture is not neat. So we took its leaves and tried all kinds of ways to pinch them, but we couldn't pinch them neatly.
"Saving the Famine Materia Medica": "Corns grass is also known as pinching uneven, with its leaves pinched with fingernails, and the slash (huo) is uneven, hence the name." In the wilderness, the ground is born, and the leaves are as big as corns, and they are round like trifolic sour pulp leaves."
Upon closer inspection, it is revealed that its veins are obliquely ascending. When its blade is broken, the fracture can not always be smooth, often showing a V-shape, so it is also called "clover herringbone".
Pinched unevenly, at first glance, it is a bit similar to alfalfa, all of them are three pinnate compound leaves, all legumes. It's just not the same size. The uneven leaves are visually a quarter the size of a sativa leaf, and the leaves are thin and hard.
Pinched unevenly, the scientific name is corns, also known as male and female grass, bezoar yellow, clover herringbone grass, and corn peas. It is distributed in most parts of the country, and prefers to grow on hillsides, roadsides, streams, and forest meadows.
corns, the plants are scattered or lying flat; The leaves are three-pinnate compound leaves, with stripes, membranous pedicles, ovate-oblong, leaflets papery;
The flowers are small, calyx bell-shaped, and the corolla is pink or purple. The flowers are small, but they are beautiful in color and look very beautiful.
The pods are round or obovate, with 1 seed, black, corn-like.
