Rare And Endangered Plant Monotropa Uniflora L
CHONGQING, CHINA - OCTOBER 10, 2023 - Monotropa uniflora L,Also known as Indian pipe, a rare and endangered plant found in a 1,500-meter-high mountain, Chongqing, China, October 10, 2023. The strange thing about this plant is that it has no chlorophyll, so it can't photosynthesize like other plants, and it can only live in the dark and humid branches and leaves, and is a saprophytic organism. It is very rare because of the harsh growing conditions. (Photo by Costfoto/NurPhoto)
