Baiying, an ornamental herb distributed in Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu and other places in China, as well as Anhui and Chongqing in China, is also a traditional and commonly used Chinese herbal medicine. However, due to problems such as over-harvesting and environmental pollution over the years, it is now facing a survival dilemma. In this article, we will briefly introduce the characteristics, uses, and conservation status of Blanca alba and its propagation strategies. It is hoped that it can arouse the public's attention to the ecological protection and medicinal value of Baiying at the same time.

Solanaceae is a beautiful and durable herb that has been appreciated and used in China since ancient times. Nowadays, people in India, South Korea and other countries around the world also generally love this tender green plant.

White English generally grows in temperate and ** zones, including Northeast China, North China, Central China, South China and other regions. It is more common in rural areas, mountainous areas, wastelands, forest edges, roadsides, etc.

It is an annual or perennial herbaceous plant that grows in hillside grasslands, underforests, shrubs and roadsides at an altitude of 170-2800 meters, and is one of the common wild plants in China. According to the Shennong Materia Medica, Baiying has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, eliminating swelling and dampness, and fighting cancer.

However, in recent years, due to over-harvesting and environmental pollution problems, the number of white vetting has shrunk dramatically and is even endangered. Calls for greater protection are growing. Scientists have observed that Bai Ying prefers to grow in grasslands, forest edges, river banks and wetlands in the ** zone and temperate climates, and prefers full sunshine, moderate humidity and cool environments. In order to prevent the spread of white English seeds from being blocked, people often take measures such as setting up protective nets and planting protective plants.

In addition, the breeding method of white English is also intriguing. Its dispersal mainly depends on seeds and rhizomes. The fruit of Baiying is a capsule, which bursts naturally every time it is ripe, and the seeds will rise with the wind and take root and sprout. If the seed is damaged by man, it can also regrow a new plant by breaking or cutting the rhizome. Scientists have found that the rate of reproduction is extremely fast, and sometimes it can even reach large areas of pure wild populations in the wild.

To sum up, Baiying not only has great ecological value, but also economic value cannot be ignored. Therefore, it is urgent to strengthen the protection of wild animals and plants. Bai Ying, which began with the Shennong Classic of Materia Medica, is now a valuable resource in the treasure house of traditional Chinese medicine recognized worldwide. We hope that all readers will continue to support the conservation of Bai Ying, cherish this miraculous herb given by nature, and jointly ensure the safety of the ecological environment.

Bai Ying, an elf who brings us health and beauty, is facing a choice of survival. Let us be grateful, take care of nature, and create a better tomorrow!
