The (Bellis perennis) is a bloom plant from the family of the basket bloom plants (Asteraceae). Since it grows on nearly each lawn, it ranks among the most well-known plants of Central Europe.

Description

The plant

The plant is and a krautige plant of several years becoming highly up to 10 cm. It is partly strongly basally branches out and plentifully with adventitious roots equipped. The gestielten sheets grow in a close Blattrosette. They are basicconstantly and formed to wrongly eggly-shaped oval. The sheets are six centimeters long between and and from color.

Each Blattrosette brings continuously individual, gestielte out from March to Octobers.

The bloom

Which for a botanischen layman like only one bloom looks, an illusory bloom is actual (botanisch: Pseudanthium). It concerns here bloom conditions, consisting of more than hundred single flowers. They are arranged - as typical for - on the widened branch axle, the in such a way specified (high-curved branch axle) or (flat branch axle). In the center of the the yellow, zwittrigen and radi¤rsymmetrischen tube blooms are located. The deformed tiny crown of everyone these between 75 and 125 counting tube blooms ends with five Kronblattzipfeln. The white, zygomorphen female tongue blooms are located edge-constantly. They are arranged in two rows.

The Fruchtknoten is always under-constantly, and from two compound. The tube blooms contain the active substance Saponin, ethereal oil, bitter material and Schleim.Das always depend due to the Heliotropismus on the sun and close in the evening as well as in bad weather.

Circulation area

The kind of the consists of approximately 15 kinds, which have their spreading emphasis in the Mediterranean area. Only the is to be found from this kind today also in Central Europe and Northern Europe. Bellis perennis is regarded as a which came only by creation of spacious meadows and pastures in before-historical time to a so far propagation northward. To a very frequent occurrence of this plant it came however only with the introduction of lawns into gardens and parks. This kind was settled by humans later also in north and South America, along the Pacific coast, on larva Irish Republican Army and New Zealand. Frequently the propagation took place purposefully, but via a pollution from grass seeds via the seeds of the - botanisch this propagation form is called also Speirochorie.

Preferential locations are pastures, park lawns and gardens on nutrient-rich underground, bewachsene railway embankments; a regular cut is necessarily, there the grasses and game flowers otherwise the low growing over usury. Since Bellis is perennis a memory plant, she survives the winter in Schnee.Der name comes from latin and means: "“bellus = beautifully"” and "“perennis = persistent"”, thus "“beautiful persevering"”.

Reproduction

The blooms, which appear from March to Octobers, are dusted by bees, Hummeln, floating flies, flies and butterflies. The self dusting of a bloom, the so-called Autogamie, is not possible. The blooms are, as before male for typically, i.e., the separate ripe Pollen, if the in the bloom are not yet ready for a dusting. It comes however to the so-called Geitonogamie, at which a dusting between blooms of the same plant takes place. With dusted blooms the so-called develops from the Fruchtknoten The uses a number of very different strategies for the propagation of these

For the spreading of the is typical by the wind. One calls this also wind-faithful (Anemochorie). The flexible and something extended by gusts of wind are moved and the tiny, only about 1 to 1.5 millimeters are enough for scattered. The germinates however also, if they passed the digestive tract of animals. At this as Endochorie designated propagation are with the above all earthworms, sheep and cattle involved. The increases generativ by seed and vegetativy by adventitious roots. The fruits are closing fruits crowned by the Pappus, a flight organ, typical for with which fruit and seed bowl grew together with one another. The seeds are endospermlos.
