The "pancake" is slightly bent with # left and right edges higher than the middle. A ring of 15 "fat # mousetail" roots --- dark, short and S-shaped --- sprout from the # edge; they seem to support the "pancake" like the legs of a # table. The three ones in front are much thicker than the 12 in the # back. (Note that if the thick roots were split in two, there will # be 18 roots, close to the 19 of f39r.) # Stem: many short straight stems sprout separately from the top surface # of the "pancake". Each stem ends with a leaf and flower; the # longer ones have additional leaves attached to them. # Branches: occasional short branches, each having a # single leaf and flower at the tip. # Leaves: two spindle-shaped leaves fused at the base, forming a # "V" with fat arms and pointed tips. No leaf stalks. # Flowers: one per branch. # Stalk: longish. Chalyx: spindle-shaped, with smooth rim. Petals # and core: none. # # An almost identical copy of this drawing appears on f39r. This one # is drawn with less skill and/or care. The root shape is more # irregular, its top surface is medium dark, and the flowers have only # a flat circle in place of the corolla and core. # Also the flowers sprout from the tip of each stem or branch. # # Rene [07 Apr 1999] reports that the vellum of this folio is thinner than # average. # # Comments: # # # References: # # # Last edited on DATE TIME by USER
