The narrower end is lighter and attached to # the plant, and covered by tight bracts resembling those of an # eggplant. The wider end is crowned by a light patch surrounded by # short, narrow, curved petals, and filled with concentric dotted # circles---possibly a cluster of small mature flowers. # # Rene [07 Apr 1999] reports that the vellum of this folio is thinner than # average. # # Comments: # # # References: # # # Last edited on DATE TIME by USER
