Burgundy Flower

Flower type: Annual (Grows upwards by clinging to almost any surface.)

This small flower grows up to 4 inches (10 cm) tall. Its burgundy stem is very thin, and the giant, gray-green leaves are dark gray on the underside and are needle-like with wavy edges. The leaves grow in pairs along the length of the stem.

Around 70 small flowers grow in a bunch at the end of the stem. The flowers are 3 cm (1.2 inches) wide, with green petals on the lower layer and silver petals decorated with subtle yellow dots on the inner layer. The central disk is bronze. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of 11 curved petals. They detach easily.

It has an intensely strong scent that smells like a woman, and it has an average amount of pollen. It is pollinated by a small species of bird.

It is suitable for creating tough, hard-wearing textiles
It absorbs an exceptionally large amount of water each day.
