sansevieria flower

As an ornamental plant Sansevieria very easy to care for, do not require much land, and can function as an absorber of pollutants. Sansevieria three are the main characteristics that meet the criteria of the demands of an increasingly busy society, do not have a large field, and laden with pollution.
The reason why this plant has many varieties is because multiplication is performed on these plants do not always produce the same type with its parent. Beauty Sansevieria shown of various types, shapes, sizes, and colors of the leaves. Variety of species that exist in nature not only obtained from crosses of plants but also because of mutation. This plant is easy to mutate, even when performed proliferation through leaf cuttings, seedlings should be like its parent but in Sansevieria mutation will occur so that their children often differ from its parent.
7 (seven) conditions that must be owned plants in order to become a trend that is beautiful and socially acceptable, variations in the form of diverse, high color variation, easy maintenance, the rate of propagation medium, slow growth, as well as anti-pollution and anti-radiation in line with research that says NASA Sansevieria able to absorb the 107 air pollutants. So all sayarat to be fulfilled by the Sansevieria trends. This plant has the CAM metabolic pathway (Crasulaceaen Acid Metabolism), where at night the absorption of oxygen slightly so as not to disrupt the process of human respiration. 

Increased variations in appearance and character of Sansevieria is also much affected due to mutation of the same species that display the shape, size, and different leaf color. Mutations can occur due to propagation through leaf cuttings and because of the influence of environmental factors such as soil fertility, temperature, and the influence of light. Sunlight has a diverse spectrum based on the electromagnetic wavelength, one of which is X and gamma rays are short wave. Both are ionizing radiation that can release energy (ionization) when passing through or penetrate the material. Ionization process that occurs in plant tissue, causing cell changes, genome, chromosome, and DNA or genes. These changes are called mutations, only the intensity of X-rays and gamma rays in sunlight is very low so that the mutation in the wild is very slow. Mutations can also occur by inducing mutagens derived from chemicals that are transferred to another molecule that has an electron density high enough so that the structure of DNA in transformed plants. Yet there are times when the plant returned to normal when the mutation bred generative. Although the mutation, mutant plants retain the normal gene. In particular generation of the normal gene is likely to reappear. Mutations will survive if the mutated plants were isolated and propagated by tissue culture.

The similarity of the figure of Sansevieria on certain types of easy to outwit. Although only a few physical differences sometimes be reason to raise prices by giving a new name. Naming is not referring to the true source would make this plant has two names. This confusion can occur because the plant is less suited to the new environment so that his appearance changed. Sansevieria easily change shape, this new look often stable, so her new name became paten.Sansevieria trifasciata which is the species, the most widely produced new variants due to the deviation, resulting in approximately 60 variants. While belonging to Sansevieria species there are more than 140 species.
