What plants can forecast the weather?

Plants that can become green intelligent agents have the following answers:

Common mimosa, dripping Guanyin, willow, elm and banana trees can all forecast the weather. Such as mimosa, in rainy weather, leaves tend to be together, petiole drooping, long reaction time, often in a drooping state. Such as dripping Guanyin, it will drip when the humidity is high and the transpiration is large, and some plants such as willow and elm will drip.

Not only moss and lichen, but also gladiolus will monitor air pollution. A healthy gladiolus plant, left in the air with a fluorine concentration of only 40 parts per billion for about 3 hours, will have spots on its leaves, mostly on the leaves of lateral veins. Cotton, mirabilis jalapa, apples and other plants are very sensitive to sulfur dioxide; Gladiolus, tomatoes, peaches and plums are sensitive to hydrogen fluoride.

Extended data:

Bryophytes are small green plants with simple structure, including only stems and leaves, and sometimes there are only flat leaflike bodies without real roots and vascular bundles.

Bryophytes like dark and humid environment, and generally grow on bare stone walls or wet forests and swamps.

In the life history of bryophytes, mature gametophytes often have leaflike organs; In some mosses and Ceratophyllum, the mature gametophyte is slightly flat or very flat (protophyte), and often clings to the substrate.

The gametophytes of most bryophytes are usually fixed on the substrate with filamentous rhizomes; Pseudorhizomes are mainly fixed organs and have absorption effect. Sporophytes are usually annual and attach to gametophytes to varying degrees, absorbing nutrients and water.

There is a capsule on the stem structure of sporophyte, and spores are scattered from the capsule. Spores germinate to form gametophytes-flaky thalli or stem-leaf bodies with stem-leaf differentiation, and sporophytes develop on the gametophytes. Moss can also be propagated nutritionally through gametophyte fragments or specialized cells that germinate like spores.
