Plants that predict the weather, what are the plants that predict the weather?

The plants that forecast the weather are: wind rain flower, mimosa, mirabilis jalapa, willow, pumpkin vine, moss and so on.

Rain flower grows in Xishuangbanna, China. When the storm comes, a large number of flowers will bloom. According to this feature, people can know the weather changes in advance, so everyone calls it "rain flower". Willow is the most common weather forecast plant. When the willow leaves turn white, it indicates that rainy weather is coming.

Other plants that can predict the weather.

Mimosa:

There is a folk saying that "mimosa is shy and it will rain".

That is to say, if the leaves of mimosa shrink slowly after being touched, droop slowly, or open when the leaves are slightly closed, it means that it is very likely that wind and rain will come.

On the other hand, if the leaves of mimosa close quickly and return to normal soon, it means good weather in the near future.

Mirabilis jalapa:

Mirabilis jalapa is basically distributed all over the country, because it is usually open in the evening, so some places are also called dinner flowers, bath flowers and thunder flowers.

If this flower blooms in the evening and fades the next morning, it means it is sunny.

If it withers later, it may rain or be cloudy that day.
