Cactus

Today, I bought cactuses as graduation gifts for my juniors in next week's graduation ceremony.

I usually buy bouquet flowers as a graduation gift, but my juniors said like they want succulent plants like cactuses in advance, so I chose pots which several cactuses were planted.

It is easy to grow cactuses, and it will not wither easily.

Cactuses have thorns, but actually, they are leaves of the cactuses.

It is said that by the leaves shaped like thorns, the surface area would reduce, and it would prevent the evaporation of moisture.

In addition, the thorns have a role of cooling their bodies by scattering strong sunlight.

If you pulled out all the thorns, the surface temperature of the cactus would rise 10 degrees.

今日は、来週の卒業式に、卒業祝いとして後輩に渡すためのサボテンを買いました。

いつもは花束ですが、サボテンのような多肉植物のほうが欲しいと事前に言われていたので、今回は小さなサボテンが複数入ったポットにしました。

サボテンなら育てるのも簡単で、なかなか枯れることもありません。

サボテンにはトゲがありますが、これはサボテンの葉っぱです。

葉をトゲのようにすることで表面積を減らし、水分の蒸発を防いでいると言われています。

また、強い日差しを散乱させて冷却する役割も担っているようで、トゲを全部抜くとサボテンの表面温度は10℃も上昇するようです。
