If the plant is not a salt water plant, then plasmolysis will occur when you pour salt on a plant.

When you pour salt on a plant water molecules inside the cell are drawn out. When the water molecules leave the cell, the cell becomes dehydrates and shrinks. This is called plasmolysis.

How does salt effect plants?

Salt draws water away from the roots, it also effects the way the plant gets its nutrients. In water, salt breaks down into sodium and chloride. The sodium replaces the nutrients in the soil, and the chloride, effects the photosynthasis in the leaves. These causes could effect the plant's growth by stunting it, it could make the plant turn brown and wilt, and last but not least, the plant could possibly die.
