A special Valentine's Plant of the Day: Dodder (Cuscuta spp.). Dodder is a parasitic vine that uses haustoria to suck nutrients from a host plant. Common names for dodder include love vine, hellbine, angel's hair, and witches hair.

Dodder, known as witch’s hair & strangle vine. This plant is parasitic, siphoning nutrients from its host plant! Lacking the ability to photosynthesize, it doesn’t have the characteristic green color of most plants, instead displaying an orange hue reminiscent of a witch’s hair.

The corpse plant, Monotropa uniflora, has no chlorophyll. In the video I say it's a saprophyte, but I was mistaken! It is parasitic on mycorrhizal fungi, which get their energy from tree roots. This was taken a while back at @el_tular during the rainy season. #botany #nature

unable to produce chlorophyl on it's own the Ghost Pipe flower is a parasitic plant that survives by borrowing nutrients from certain fungi, trees and decaying plant matter πŸ¦‹

Parasite of the day is Monotropa uniflora, the ghost pipe. Found on multiple continents in temperate areas, it is an obligate parasite on Russula mushrooms. Due to leaching nutrients from fungi, it does not photosynthesize and is thus devoid of all chlorophyll.
