Relationship between Zizania latifolia and Zizania latifolia
Zizania latifolia generally grows at the water's edge with the water depth of 1 m to 1.5 m, and often coexists with onion and cattail. The shelled caryopsis of wild Zizania latifolia is Zizania latifolia.
The economic value of Zizania latifolia is great. The tender stems at the base of the culm are thick, fat and tender, which are similar to bamboo shoots. They are called Zizania latifolia (tall bamboo shoots, Zizania latifolia, Zizania latifolia) and are delicious vegetables.
In ancient times, Zizania latifolia grew normally and bore fruit in autumn. It is called carved humus and is one of the six valleys. Later, it was deformed by auricularia auricula and could not blossom and bear fruit, so it became a vegetable.
