The process of making plant specimens is as follows:

1. Collect plants: Collect a complete plant. You can collect dwarf herbaceous plants. Do not choose diseased or unhealthy plants.

2. Clean plants: wash away the sludge and remove dead leaves.

3. Press plants: Place the plants in paper, and then sandwich the plant specimens in thick books, or put thick books on paper pads.

4. Change the paper regularly: Change the absorbent paper for the plants regularly to dry the specimens.

5. Label recording: hang labels and record the status of the specimens.

Notes

Before making a plant specimen, you must first look for a complete plant. Try to choose a complete plant with roots, leaves, stems, flowers and fruits, so as to ensure that the specimen of integrity. You can collect dwarf herbaceous plants by digging them up by the roots. Be careful not to choose diseased or unhealthy plants.

When cleaning plants, remove the sludge from the plants and remove the dead leaves on the plants, which can help maintain the ornamental value of the plant specimens. To press a plant, place a clean, dry piece of paper on a table, place the plant on top of the paper, and cover the plant with a piece of paper. Plant specimens can be sandwiched between thick books or paper can be padded with thick books.

After the plant specimens are prepared, a label can be hung, and the location and date of collection should be noted on the label, as well as the name of the collector. In addition, the label should record the plant's situation in detail, such as the plant's growth environment and the plant's morphological characteristics, so that the specimen can be read and studied later.
