Dad had been growing this potted plant for years, but when he repotted it, he took out something like this, and it was a real surprise!

A few years ago, Dad bought more than a dozen potted plants at the flower market and had been growing them at home for many years. Recently he wanted to give the potted plants a new pot, but after all the plants in the pots were dug out, everyone was truly stunned, and even the neighbors came over to join the fun. Let's take a look!

Dad said that one year it was especially popular to grow this kind of potted plant, so he bought dozens of pots of it on and off. Now he has been growing them for seven or eight years. He thought the pots the plants originally came in were too ugly, so he bought new pots and planned to switch them. These potted plants are not any especially precious variety. Their name is He Shou Wu, and He Shou Wu is a very easy plant to grow. It can be planted in all four seasons, and the roots it grows also have a certain ornamental value. I wonder if you have this kind of plant at home?

Some of the roots of these pots of He Shou Wu that Dad grew had already been exposed, but when two of the pots were dug out with the plants and soil together, the family was truly stunned. This root that closely resembles a human shape was something they had seen for the first time! After checking some information, they learned that when wild He Shou Wu encounters hard objects such as stones during growth, it cannot grow normally and develops uneven, bumpy areas. Among these, the ones that closely resemble a human shape are naturally formed human-shaped He Shou Wu.

But this probability is not very high. Only one or two will appear among hundreds of He Shou Wu plants. Nowadays, however, many human-shaped He Shou Wu on the market are not wild, but are made by people using molds. The various parts of artificially cultivated human-shaped He Shou Wu are symmetrical and plump, just like a carved work of art. So if it looks too much like a human shape, it can basically be judged that a mold was used. Natural human-shaped He Shou Wu closely resembles a human shape but is not completely human-shaped.
