Unicorn Deer Born In Italy

Gilberto Tozzi, director of the Center of Natural Sciences in Prato, northwest of Florence said, "Deer are one year old was born in captivity with a congenital genetic defect that gave him only one horn right in the middle of his head." The deer had a normal twin with two horns on his head.

Soon overwhelmed the community conservation center to see the rare deer. In a few days recorded more than 200 visitors who came to an area of 1 hectare is.

"We received so many calls from people and many came to see the deer immediately. Sometimes the deer fence boldly approached the visitors despite the fact that she is shy deer" Tozzi said.

One-horned deer are animals classified as endangered, although it does not mean there is no before. but experts say that a deer with one horn right in the middle of the head is something never seen before. Tozzi said that this anomaly may have triggered the emergence of the legend of the Unicorn in the past.

Unicorn is a legendary creature similar to a horse with one horn in the middle of the head with the healing power of stories that appeared in legends around the world, from ancient texts to Harry Potter fiction.

Old records once called Unicorn of them is the English Bible King James version is translated in the 17th century that the word "unicorn" as much as 8 times. and Leonardo da Vinci never mentioned the nature of the Unicorn in his diary. And perhaps the most ancient records known about the Unicorn is a picture of the Unicorn seal used by the Indus Valley civilization in India.

The spathe is a modified leaf typically heart shape. It comes in different colors – pink, white, green white and red.

The size of beds depends on the growers but the ideal distance of planting should be 1 meter to accommodate nine mature plants per square meter.

• Growth Medium

The selection of the growth medium depends on the availability, cost and ease of handling.

The most common media used are:

1. coconut husks
2. coir dust
3. red or black cinder

• Light Requirement

The light requirement ranges from 60 – 75% shade. Three to four layers of net 10 feet above the plants should be installed.

• Temperature Requirement

The best temperature in growing anthurium ranges from 10 – 20°C (night temperature) and 27 – 30°C (day temperature).

• Water Requirement

The amount and frequency of watering depends on the prevailing climatic condition in the production area, medium and degree of shading. Anthurium needs water during all the stages of growth. It requires high relative humidity.

• Fertilizer Requirement

Both inorganic and organic fertilizers may be used in anthurium. Complete fertilizers such as 16-16-16, 30-10-10 and 10-20-30 at the rate of 1 tablespoon per gallon of water sprayed or drenched on the medium.

• Harvesting

Anthurium are ready for harvest when the peduncle portion near the neck is already firm and ¼ to ¾ of the base spadix turns white.

• Classification of Flowers

Flowers are sold according to sizes of the spathe (length across the broadest part)

1. extra large (10.0 cm and above)
2. large (8.0 – 8.5 cm)

4. small (6.0 – 6.5 cm)
