Stalk: medium length, looks like a branch. # Flowers: three, on tip of main branch. # Stalk: longish, looks like a branch. Chalyx: an oblong oval # sweelling at end of stalk, partial dark overpaint. Petals: many, # narrow and long; the flower looks like a shaving brush. Core: # hidden by petals. # # Two paragraphs (with 6.4 and 5.4 lines), left- and rightjustified: # one at the top, slightly narrower, interrupted by three flowers; # and one near the bottom, interrupted by two branches. # # Comments: # # The root looks rather strange, the stems and leaves are # somewhat awkward, but the flowers look normal. # # Petersen tentative identification is "cyanus segetum, cornflower # (caeruleus) (cf 153)". That must be # # Centaurea_cyanus (cornflower,fiodaliso;bluet,kornblume) # http://www.lysator.liu.se/runeberg/nordflor/7.html # # The flower shape and branching pattern seem to match fairly well. # However, those features are not very specific. [What about color?] # Also, the leaves of Centaurea cyanus are long and thin, with # smooth edges or a few very shallow teeth, attached directly to the # stem; quite unlike those of f2r. # # Infusions of Centaurea cyanus were once used as a febrifugue # (whole plant) and eye wash (flowers only). # ## {} # text # Last edited on 1998-12-12 13:51:24 by stolfi # kydainy.ypchol.daiin.otchal-{plant}ypchaiin.ckholsy-{plant} kydainy.ypchol.daiin.otchal-{plant}ypchaiin.ckholsy-{plant} kydainy.ypchol.daiin.otchal-{plant}ypchaiin.ckholsy-{plant} # dorchory-{plant}chkar.s-{plant}shor.cthy.cth!- dorchory-{plant}chkar.s-{plant}shor.cthy.***!- dorchory-{plant}chkar.s-{plant}shor.cthy.ctho- # qotaiin-{plant}cthey.y-{plant}chor.chy.ydy-{plant}chaiin- qotaiin-{plant}cthey.y-{plant}chor.chy.ydy-{plant}chaiin- qotaiin-{plant}cthey.y-{plant}chor.chy.ydy-{plant}chaiin- # chaindy-{plant}chtod.dy-{plant}cphy.dal!s-{plant}chokaiin.d- !*aiidy-{plant}chtod.dy-{plant}cphy.dal.s-{plant}chokaiin.d- shaiidy-{plant}chtod!dy-{plant}cphy.dal!s-{plant}chokaiin.d- # otochor.al-{plant}shodaiin-{plant}chol.!dan- {plant}ytchaiin.dan- otochor.al-{plant}shodaiin-{plant}chol.chan- {plant}ytchaiin.dan- otochor.al-{plant}shodaiin-{plant}chol.!dan- {plant}ytchaiin.dan- # saiin.daind-{plant}d!kol.sor-{plant}ytoldy- {plant}dchol.dchy.cthy- saiin.daind-{plant}d.kol.sor-{plant}ytoldy- {plant}dchol.dchy.cthy- saiin.daind-{plant}d!kol.sor-{plant}ytoldy- {plant}dchol.dchy.cthy- # shor.ckhy.daiiny-{plant}chol.dan={plant} shor.ckhy.daiiny-{plant}chol.dan={plant} shor.ckhy.daiiny-{plant}chol.dan={plant} # kydain.shaiin.qoy.s.shol.fodan-{plant}yksh.olsheey.daiildy- kydain.shaiin.qoy.s.shol.fodan-{plant}ytsh.olsheey.daiildy- kydain.shaiin.qoy.s.shol.fodan-{plant}yksh.olsheey.daiildy- # dlssho.kol.sheey.qokey.ykody.so-{plant}chol.yky.dain.daiirol- dlssho.kol.sheey.qokey.ykody.so-{plant}chol.yky.dain.daiirdl- dlssho.kol.sheey.qokey.ykody.so-{plant}chol.yky.dain.daiirol- # qoky.cholaiin.shol.sheky.daiin- {plant}cthey.keol.s!aiin.saiin- qoky.cholaiin.shol.sheky.daiin- {plant}cthey.keol.s!aiin.saiin- qoky.cholaiin.shol.sheky.daiin- {plant}cthey.keol.s.aiin.saiin- # ychain.dal.chy.dalor.shan.dan-{plant}olsaiin.sheey.ckhor- ychain.dal.chy.dalor.shan!!!!-{plant}**saiin.sheey.ckhor- ychain.dal.chy.dalor.shan.dan-{plant}olsaiin.sheey.ckhor- # okol.chy.chor.cthor.yor.an.chan-{plant}saiin.chety.chyky.sal- okol.chy.chor.cthor.yor.an.chan-{plant}saiin.chety.chyky.sal- okol.chy.chor.cthor.yor.an.chan-{plant}saiin.chety.chyky.sal- # sho.ykeey.chey.daiin.chcthy= sho.ykeey.chey.daiin.chcthy= sho.ykeey.chey.daiin.chcthy= # ## {} # label on plant # Last edited on 1998-12-25 06:54:39 by stolfi # # "U" transcription by J.
