Recently, researchers at Lanzhou Institute of Husbandry and Pharmaceutical Sciences (LIHPS) of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS) have made breakthrough in breeding a new grass varieties, the Limonium aureum (L.) Hill. cv. Longzhong. It can be planed for sand-fixing in the extreme arid area with its florescence about 200 days.
Limonium aureum (L.) Hill. cv. Longzhong is a wild ornamental domesticated cultivar. The breed is a perennial herb which originated from the Gobi desert plants. It is mainly used for landscaping, landscaping plants, sand-fixing, forage grasses, interior decoration and other use. The variety has high anti-drought and anti-salinity.
