Fan maidenhair fern (Adiantum tenerum)

Suplir rumpun or fan maidenhair fern (Adiantum tenerum) is a plant species in Pteridaceae, light green leaves, pinnate, fan-shaped, bald, curved or independent, growing mainly in the lowlands and able to adapt well in clay, lime, moist soil and shade.

A. tenerum includes annual shrubs with rhizomes that propagate in growing media, branched and alternating fronds, grow curved or hang between vertical or gentle slopes and on horizontal ground surfaces.

Dlium Fan maidenhair fern (Adiantum tenerum)

The stem is a leaf bone, sturdy but easily bent or broken, smooth and black in color. Branched stems with alternating rules, tend to zig-zag on each branch and end on a leaf blade at the end of the stem.

The leaves gather at the end of the stem, of medium size compared to other species in the genus, 65 cm long and nearly the same width, fan-shaped strands, smooth surface, jagged edges and bright green or green.

Fan maidenhair ferns are naturally found growing on sloping soil on river banks, ponds, padding walls, walls or piles of rock as long as there is humus that is moist and protected from sunlight.

Guinea grass (Panicum maximum)

Guinea grass or buffalo grass or green panic ( Panicum maximum ) is a plant species in Poaceae, annual grasses, growing upright to form clumps, strong, cultivated in all tropical and subtropical regions for very high value as fodder. P. maximum reproduces in very large pols, fibrous roots penetrate into the soil, upright stems, green, 1-1.5 m tall and have smooth cavities for diameters up to 2.5 mm. Propagation is done vegetatively and generatively. Ribbon-shaped leaves with a pointed tip, very many, built in lines, green, 40-105 cm long, 10-30 mm wide, erect, branched, a white linear bone, often covered with a layer of white wax, rough surface by hair short, dense and spread. The flower grows at the end of a long and upright stalk, open with the main axis length to more than 25 cm and the length of the bunches down to 20 cm. Grains have a size of 3x4 mm and oval.

Purwaceng (Pimpinella pruatjan)

Purwaceng or purwoceng or antanan gunung or Viagra of Java ( Pimpinella pruatjan or Pimpinella priatjan ) are small termas growing horizontally in Apiaceae, growing in villages on Dieng Plateau, Central Java Province, Indonesia, at 1,500 to 2,000 meters above sea level, the roots have medicinal properties for aphrodisiacs and are usually processed in powder form for a mixture of coffee or milk. P. pruatjan grows flat on the ground but does not propagate, small leaves are reddish green for 1-3 cm in diameter. This plant is only found in Java and grows in high mountain areas. A low population where industrial demand is very high results in increasingly scarce. Another place that is likely to become a purwaceng habitat is the Iyang Mountains and the Tengger Mountains in East Java Province. Efforts to multiply and cultivate have a big problem where these plants have difficulty producing seeds. In vitro propagation research through tissue cultivation has been carried out to overcome ...
