Cactus Plant Observation Diary 1

Dad bought me a small pot of cactus.

This cactus looks so cute. Its lower part is dark green in color, and its shape is a bit like a triangular prism. It is neither fat nor thin, and has a few sparse thorns on its body.

What’s even more interesting is that there is a round, goose-yellow cactus growing on the triangular body of the cactus. The cactus is as big as a bowling ball, covered with clusters of small thorns. These thorns are particularly like pine needles on pine trees, thin and dense.

Looking from a distance, this cactus looks like a beautiful little girl. She is standing on my desk as if saying to me: "Hello! My name is Xiaomei, let's do it." Be a good friend!

I like this cute cactus friend! Cactus Plant Observation Diary 2

There are many plants on my balcony, but that is not my favorite plant. The bright red and purple roses are not the lush green radish, but the tenacious cactus.

One summer, when our family went to Hainan, I forgot to water the cactus. The reason why it was forgotten by me is because it was placed in the darkest corner, which made me often forget its existence. I originally remembered to water it once before going on a trip, but I forgot about it in a hurry. It wasn't until I was on my way to play that I suddenly remembered that the cactus had to endure five days to drink water in such a hot weather. I didn't know if it could survive. I was worried about it for five consecutive days. God, I have been thinking about this.

When I got home five days later, the first thing I did was to see if the cactus was dead, but the first thing I saw was the cactus that was dying. , the originally green and tall body has become weak, and the leaves that were originally as hard as needles have become dejected, as if they would break if touched. I quickly brought a large bowl of water and poured it from around the heel. Go down, but the cactus still didn't respond. I thought it couldn't survive this test, and I was almost crying.

However, what surprised me was that this cactus, which was about to die, showed its strength. The will to live came back.

That day, I was already discouraged and wanted to throw away the cactus, but what I saw was a slightly tall cactus. Although it is not as straight as before, it feels alive, and its needle-like leaves are also much sharper. I am so happy that I can see its tenacious vitality.

Thanks to my careful care, this cactus has grown very strong. Looking at this little life that has come back from death, I can’t help but sigh: Little cactus cherishes life so much, not to mention us humans. Live a healthy and active life! Cactus Plant Observation Diary 3

Hello everyone, last time my father and I picked a small section of cactus from a small flower bed and planned to take it home for planting. We couldn't miss the precious opportunity to observe the cactus.

First, we buried one-third of the small section of cactus in the prepared flower bed, and then picked up a large basin of water and poured it in. Dad said that the cactus is very beautiful. It is drought tolerant and does not need to be watered within this month.

At first I didn’t believe that this was a cactus, because it didn’t have a single thorn on its body, and it didn’t look like what I saw on TV. Our cactus is cylindrical, but the cactus we planted in the flower pot is square and flat, which looks very ugly.

When I woke up the next morning, I saw that the cactus had changed.

Overnight, it grew two flat branches on its sides like branches, which seemed to be its hands. After another two to three days, I found that the heads of these three branches were all green. I hurriedly called my father to watch. Dad said this is a cactus sprouting and it will grow taller in a few days. I couldn't wait to see the scene after germination, so I came to see it almost every two hours, and got up several times at night, but I was very disappointed because it didn't change at all. The cactus didn't grow until two days as my father said. One centimeter of buds appeared, all of them were grass green. I also saw the thorns on the buds, which were very soft to the touch because they had not grown up yet.

To this day, my family has been raising cacti for more than a month, and the thorns on their bodies are still very soft. Now the cactus has grown two branches, and the longest bud has reached ten. centimeter.

Students, this is my cactus. If anyone is interested, you can contact me! Cactus Plant Observation Diary 4

My family has two fat, green cactus. One is small and planted in the soil, and the other is large and planted in the water.

The thorns of the small cactus are white, thin and pointed. If you touch it with your hands, you must feel very sore and painful! It has produced small black seeds and fallen on the grass next to it. Within a few days, baby green cactus grew on the grass. They were so cute! I couldn't help but touch it. Its thorns were very soft, as if a puppy was licking your finger, it was itchy. I also found that the newly grown cactus baby was not strong enough. If I touched it lightly, it would stagger along with the grass. It was so interesting!

My big cactus is different. It looks much stronger. There were many hard thorns on its fat body, like sharp needles, so I didn't dare to touch it. I can only use a magnifying glass to observe the thorns of the big cactus and find that its thorns are segment by segment. What is going on? My mother said: "This is the chlorophyll on the leaves." I suddenly realized. The roots of the big cactus grow in the water and are extremely long. Why? What's the use of being so long? I tried hard to use my brain and thought: Cacti grow in the desert. There is a lack of water in the desert, and the plants' heels must reach very deep to absorb water. "No wonder its heels are so long!" I yelled.

There are so many secrets about cactus! Cactus Plant Observation Diary 5

My father bought me a small pot of cactus.

This cactus has a dark green body, which looks like an irregular triangular body. Its body is very thick. I know that cactus lives in arid deserts. It is very drought-tolerant and does not need much water because it stores enough water in its thick body.

What’s interesting is that there is a bright red cactus on the head of the cactus. From a distance, it looks like a little girl wearing a little red riding hood. The red cactus looks like a red cockscomb, like a red fireball, like clusters of small balls gathering together for a meeting, and more like an Olympic torch.

The red cactus has many fluffy little thorns on its body. Some of the thorns are soft to the touch, and some are very prickly. I think this should be a weapon for it to protect itself.

I put this lovely cactus on my desk. When I get tired of studying, I just look at it and whisper to it. It is really my good partner! Cactus Plant Observation Diary 6

On the balcony of my house, there is a pot of very inconspicuous cactus.

When I first bought it, it was to cure my cough.

When I first bought it, the cactus had only four "palms", each one was like a piece of emerald, the whole body was emerald green, and covered with thorns like steel needles. I wanted to touch it to see how many thorns there were. It's hard, but it hurts so much when it pricks me! I was thinking: How can this guy with thorns all over his body cure diseases?

I saw my father put on gloves and carefully broke off the top leaf. I asked him casually: "Dad, you cut off one of the cactus palms. How much does it hurt?" Will it die?" Dad told me: "The cactus is a unique tropical plant. Even if the leaf is broken off and placed in the soil, it will grow roots. A new cactus. Don’t worry, it won’t die.”

I was dubious about what my father said, but within a few days, a miracle happened! Not only did the cactus not die, but new buds grew at the broken place. What was even more amazing was that three small buds also grew on the remaining three leaves. After a few days, the small buds grew into "palms", but the thorns on them were soft.

This cactus in my house is often forgotten when placed on the balcony. Once, I forgot to water it for about twenty days, and the soil in the flower pot cracked, but it still stood upright like a warrior with its chest and head raised. Mom said that cactus can survive in the desert, and it doesn’t care whether there is water or no water, whether it’s hot or cold. How strong it is!

It is still my little savior! I often cough when I have a cold, but I don't like it. Dad heard from a friend that boiling water with cactus leaves and drinking it can reduce inflammation and cough, and can also cure mumps. Every time I had a bad cough, my father would break off a piece of cactus and make medicine for me. Every time I drink it, my illness gets better faster. Do you think it's amazing?

There is a cactus growing on my balcony. It is my favorite plant. I usually raise it like a baby and remind my mother to water it every day.

At first, my cactus was still a small piece, and the thorns were relatively thin but still quite sharp. After a month, it finally stretched out a pair of small hands, and the thorns grew more densely. Since I saw that the cactus was in good condition, I often watered it only once every three to five. Although I didn't water it often, it still stood proudly and full of dignity. A few months later, the cactus grew another pair of small ears and grew much taller. I was so happy! Then July came and we were on summer vacation!

So, my mother decided to take me to visit my grandfather in Xiamen. I heard that Siyi was also going to Xiamen from Fuzhou. We stayed in Xiamen for a few weeks and had forgotten about the cactus. It wasn’t until we returned that we remembered that there was a pot of cactus at home. As soon as I got home, I quickly ran to the balcony. I was shocked by the scene. Not only did the cactus not wither, it miraculously grew upwards.

But why can cacti thrive in such hot sunshine and not die? I looked up the encyclopedia with questions, and when I looked at it, I suddenly understood. It turns out that the thorns of the cactus are its leaves. The cactus originally grew in the desert. Because the climate in the desert is dry and hot, in order to reduce water evaporation, the leaves of the cactus gradually degenerate into long and pointed thorns.

The cactus is really tenacious. Even if you don’t water it, it will not wither and thrive. This spirit is worth learning. Cactus Plant Observation Diary 8

On the balcony of my house, there is a very inconspicuous pot of cactus.

The body of the cactus is like a piece of emerald and a cute little hedgehog. Its whole body is covered with thorns that look like steel needles. Don’t underestimate these thorns. These are the weapons it uses to defend itself! I was stabbed by it, and my mother was also stabbed by it. It hurt so much. My mother wanted to throw it away many times, but I refused because I have a special affection for it. I love that cactus.

Spring is here, everything wakes up, and a small cactus emerges from the cactus "mother". The small cactus looks so weak, so fragile, as if a gust of wind can blow it away.

And its "mother" was afraid that her child would be "bullied" by the cold wind in early spring, so she always used her body to block the cold wind, but the little cactus always climbed up. Finally, with the encouragement of Grandpa Chunlei, under the spring rain With the help of her sister, the little cactus overcame many difficulties and grew up.

In late spring and early summer, buds grow on the cactus. Strangely enough, the cactus blooms in a very "orderly" manner. There are always two flowers blooming at the same time, like a pair of twin sisters, and like a little girl's head. Bow tied on top. The cactus flowers are white and fragrant, like a beautiful fairy wearing a white dress, dancing gracefully on the emerald stage, while the dress exudes an intoxicating fragrance.

In autumn, the harvest season, the cactus grows up and has many uses! You can cut it into pieces and brew it into a refreshing and delicious tea to quench your thirst. It is also edible, rich in nutrients, and can be used as a bonsai... I can't say enough about it, but the most surprising thing is that it can be made into a potion to treat diseases.

People love the magnificent peonies and peonies, the various autumn chrysanthemums, and the fragrant osmanthus... But I only love the humble cactus, not only because of its appearance, but also because of its appearance. quality. Cactus Plant Observation Diary 9

There are many flowers growing on my balcony, but my favorite flower is still the cactus in green clothes.

The cactus wears dark green clothes. There are sharp needles like sewing needles on the outside of the dark green clothes. If you accidentally touch it, it is guaranteed to make you scream in pain. Although the body of the cactus is not beautiful, its flowers are very beautiful and bright.

One day, my mother told me with a smile: "Although the cactus is not beautiful, it is very drought-tolerant. If you don't give it water for seven or eight days, it will still survive." At first I was a little bit My son didn't believe it, so he tried it. He didn't water it for eight days, but it was still alive and well.

Cactus also has many uses. It can reduce inflammation and relieve pain. Once, my father was scalded by boiling water. My mother immediately applied the cactus flesh to my father's hands. The cactus was indeed very powerful. Within a few days, my father's hands were healed.

Not only can cactus cure diseases, but it can also be eaten! Mom often puts cactus in soup and boils it with the bones; cactus can also be fried and eaten, and the fried vegetables are fragrant and sweet, voila! Our whole family had a delicious meal!

My mother also said: "The stems of cactus are also very useful, they can cool down and reduce swelling." I think cactus is a treasure.

How noble and great is the cactus’s character of sacrificing herself and dedicating herself to others! I think: To be a human being, one must have the spirit of a cactus that is not afraid of difficulties, willing to serve others, and contribute everything. Cactus Plant Observation Diary 10

In a sparsely populated tropical desert where even camels cannot stay for a long time, a kind of green plant grows. It is not afraid of the fierce exposure of the sun. It stands upright on the yellow sandy dry land and remains standing despite many sandstorms. It is the familiar cactus.

The drought in the desert is ruthless, but the cactus is full of water. Its dark green coat adds color to the barren desert. It is also like a person with rich connotations. Even if he suffers all kinds of hardships and is wronged, he still keeps his head down and works hard silently. Its chest is like an endless desert, able to tolerate people and things that the world cannot tolerate.

Sandstorms often blow up in tropical deserts, blocking out the sky and the sun, flying sand and rocks. The wind is so strong that people can be blown up into the air and then fall back to the ground. But none of these can hurt the cactus, because the cactus has a very stable foundation, buried deeply in the ground, with deep roots, and continues to look for more and richer water sources deeper and wider. This is like a knowledgeable wise man who, although he already has very profound knowledge, still explores deeper into the knowledge in the hope of gaining more knowledge.

Although the sun is the source of energy for the growth of all things, it has become the culprit that makes it difficult for living things to survive in the scorching desert.

The unique cactus uses its sharp needles to resist the harsh environment, absorbing the intense sunlight and making use of it. It is like a warrior, holding a spear in hand and fighting against the adversities that come one after another, striving for the final victory and working hard for survival and development.

These characteristics of the cactus are full of the glorious side of human nature. Can we, like the cactus, have the courage to fight for survival and ideals against difficulties and get out of adversity?
