1. Different appearance

From its name, we know that its flower should look like a scarlet tassel hat. It opens like a small red POM ball. Its spherical head is very gorgeous and feels a slight sense of acupuncture. When the petals degenerate, the filaments are exposed and long and prominent. After the flower withers, a long flat pod will grow next to it, which is very cute

Puff flower is different from Zhu Ying flower. Its plant type is relatively small, mostly small shrubs, and its leaves are like pieces of feathers, but the number of leaves is very small, as long as four to six, which is not as complicated as Zhu Ying flower. Its filament base is white, very many and slender, and the number of small flowers contained in an inflorescence is not large, so the flower ball looks not as dense and thick as Zhu Ying flower

2. Different growth habits

Lantana camara grows in the tropics and likes a warm, humid and sunny climate. It is not cold resistant in a warm environment for a long time. It grows well in acid soil with good drainage and sufficient nutrition

Puff is distributed in tropical, subtropical and temperate regions, with different distribution zones. Its habits are more complex than those of Zhu Ying flower only distributed in the tropics. However, it also prefers places with sufficient light and warm and humid. The soil is better in loose and fertile sandy soil, which can not grow in acidic soil like Zhu Ying flower

3. Different value

Puff flower has high ornamental value because of its gorgeous appearance, while cinnabar flower not only has beautiful appearance and high ornamental value, but also has edible property. It has no toxicity and no side effects, and its root skin is rich in tannins. Eating tannins can help digestion and treat symptoms such as loss of appetite and constipation. Not only that, the wood of Zhuying flower branch is hard and is often used as farming tools. It is a raw material with strong grinding resistance and corrosion resistance
