Cuscuta Potosina Var. Typica
Cuscuta potosina var. typica is a parasitic flowering plant known for its lack of leaves and chlorophyll. It attaches itself to host plants by using specialized tendrils to extract nutrients. This species is commonly found in warm climates and is often seen growing on crops like beans and squash. Its small white flowers bloom in clusters and attract pollinators. Despite its parasitic nature, it plays a role in ecological systems by influencing host plant growth and diversity.
