Hi everyone's!!!
Continued from post # 2...
In sections one and two the various characteristics of this wild plant have been mentioned. So if you've read it, you will know everything in this wild plant. But in the last few weeks one of the ornamental plant farmers said that, he saw this wild plant, apparently not liked by every animal destroyer of plants as is the case with other plants.
After making developments about this plant he often saw this plant always visited by butterflies, bees, and several other animals such as Praying Mantis and ladybugs. While destructive animals such as ladybugs, aphids, caterpillars, and other destructive insect species.
Basically, the intention of ornamental plant breeders to always do new things on every plant that is considered capable of attracting people's attention both in terms of shape or color they contain.
So that with their various efforts in beautifying every plant that is considered charming, it is put into an beautiful or ornamental plant arrangement. So that everyone will be interested, so when someone else is interested in something plant, he will achieve extraordinary benefits for all his work so far.
But one of the breeders of ornamental plants discovered something new about this plant, because since he cultivated this plant, almost every species of destructive insect rarely approached this plant, including other ornamental plants that are located next to this one plant.
Then it can be concluded that, in every part of this plant there is something that is not liked by destructive insect species. But for ornamental plant breeders do not know the main source so that its presence can help the process of developing other ornamental plants.
What does it contain so that destructive pests are reluctant to approach it?
Basically this has been mentioned in the first post that this plant has a very pungent aroma and is not liked by mosquitoes, flies, caterpillars, and other destructive pests.
In the sense that sting is not a foul odor, but the content of the substances that are in it can destroy the sense of smell of the destructive insects or other pests.
In this plant contains a variety of substances or can be said that it is rich in essential oils with a distinctive aroma of lavender which is clear yellow. The chemical ingredients in lavandula essential oil are also fairly diverse, such as,
| Order | Content |
|---|---|
| 1 | linalyl acetate |
| 2 | linalool |
| 3 | lavendulyl acetate |
| 4 | lavandulol |
| 5 | and camphor |
| Scientific source | Remarks Exoendisi krie |
So, if so, it would be good news for every farmer to anticipate their harvest from any destructive pest attacks. But farmers have not tried to plant it among their fruit crops on the grounds of becoming a nursery if planted right on each side of the other plants. Then another thing that can influence it is that this plant will always grow and enlarge on every other plant, so that it will automatically inhibit the main crop.
However, if this plant is often set in height by cutting each branch, it will not grow to large and will not interfere with other plants.
Of course, it can be concluded that if he is in the area of fruit trees, then these destructive pests will be reluctant to approach the main fruit or crop plants, even if there are of course in small numbers. Thus hopefully useful.
