Each root looks # like an earthworm, light-colored with a few dark dots, with a # short and fat swelling about 4/5 of the way to the tip. # Stalk: straight, vertical, slightly tapered, uncolored(?). # * Leaves: a single ring of large, lance shaped leaves, closely spaced, # attached mid-stem with no stalks. The leaves curl down in a semicircle, # like an umbrella, until they almost touch the stem again; their thin # tips curl further into hooks. Dark overpaint. # * Flowers: one, at tip of stem, pointing up. # Stalk: medium, thin, uncolored(?); extension of stem. Chalix: # thimble-shaped, partial dark overpaint. Petals: long, hair like, # drooping. Core: hemispherical, like a bubble. # # Two paragraphs (unit µ{P}) with 3.6 and 2.5 lines, both above the plant, # left- and right-justified. # # Comments: # # The plant looks very strange but not impossible. The oddest # details are the position of the tubers, the shape and disposition of # the leaves, their curled tips, the "shaggy" flower. # # References: # # # Last edited on 1999-04-15 04:13:05 by stolfi
