Burgundy Petal

Flower type: Biennial (Stores water in its stem)

This short flower grows up to 3 inches (8 cm) tall. Its brown stem is very thick and splits into dozens of branching stems at the top, and the large, burgundy leaves are wide with smooth edges. A pair of leaves grow at the base of the stem.

Two tiny flowers sit at the end of the stem. The flowers are 17 cm (6.7 inches) wide, with petals that are generally dark grey; each flower tends to be a variation of this colour. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of up to 30 petals. They are hardy.

It has a faint scent that smells like leather, and it has lots of pollen. It is pollinated by insects and is enjoyed by several specific types of insect.
