Turqyellow Petal

This short flower grows up to 4 inches (10 cm) tall. Its cream stems grow in bunches of 4 and are very thin with a curved tip, and the giant, brown leaves are thick with jagged edges. 5 leaves grow at the base of the stem.

A single small flower sits at the end of the stem. The flowers are 6 cm (2.4 inches) wide, with alternating petals of yellow and turquoise, with a grey central disk. The flower head is largely flat with handfuls of tightly layered narrow petals. They detach easily.

It has a scent whose strength depends on external factors, such as soil quality and rain frequency that smells like damp, and it has lots of pollen; it can cause severe allergic reactions. It is a self-pollinator and is ignored by most insect species.
