Psittacanthus Dichrous
''Psittacanthus'', also parrot-flower, is a plant genus in the family Loranthaceae. It is a type of mistletoe native from central Mexico southwards to Central America and parts of South America.Vázquez Collazo, I. & Geils, B.W. 2002. It differs from most other Loranthaceae genera by its large flowers and bulky haustorial connections to its host, and by its large fruits. Its flowers frequently "light up the host tree in brilliant hues of red or red and yellow". Life cycle From inoculation of a branch with the seed to production of new seed on the plant requires about five years. Psittacanthus is dispersed by birds feeding on fruits and defecating on branches. Once the mistletoe is established, it flowers yearly. A five-year study of ''Psittacanthus calyculatus'' on ''Pinus douglasiana ''Pinus douglasiana'' is a species of evergreen conifer in the family Pinaceae. It is found only in Mexico. A common name is Douglas pine, but that name is often applied to the more widespread ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
