Patersonia Umbrosa
''Patersonia umbrosa'', commonly known as yellow flags, is a species of plant in the iris family Iridaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is a loosely-tufted, rhizome-forming, perennial herb with linear to sword-shaped leaves and deep bluish-violet or bright yellow tepals. Description ''Patersonia umbrosa'' is a loosely-tufted perennial herb with linear to sword-shaped leaves long and wide. The flowering scape is long and glabrous with the sheath enclosing the flowers narrowly lance-shaped, green, prominently veined and long. The outer tepals are deep bluish violet or bright yellow depending on variety, and egg-shaped to rhombic, long and wide, the hypanthium tube about long. Taxonomy and naming ''Patersonia umbrosa'' was first described in 1846 by Stephan Endlicher in Lehmann's ''Plantae Preissianae''. The specific epithet (''umbrosa'') means "growing in the shade". In 1912, Karel Domin described two varieties in the '' Journal of the Linne ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Endl
Newline (frequently called line ending, end of line (EOL), next line (NEL) or line break) is a control character or sequence of control characters in character encoding specifications such as ASCII, EBCDIC, Unicode, etc. This character, or a sequence of characters, is used to signify the end of a line (text file), line of text and the start of a new one. History In the mid-1800s, long before the advent of teleprinters and teletype machines, Morse code operators or telegraphists invented and used Prosigns for Morse code, Morse code prosigns to encode white space text formatting in formal written text messages. In particular the International Morse code, Morse prosign (mnemonic reak ext) represented by the concatenation of literal textual Morse codes "B" and "T" characters sent without the normal inter-character spacing is used in Morse code to encode and indicate a ''new line'' or ''new section'' in a formal text message. Later, in the age of modern teleprinters, standardiz ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Flora Of Western Australia
The flora of Western Australia comprises 10,551 published native vascular plant species and a further 1,131 unpublished species. They occur within 1,543 genera from 211 families; there are also 1,317 naturalised alien or invasive plant species more commonly known as weeds. There are an estimated 150,000 cryptogam species or nonvascular plants which include lichens, and fungi although only 1,786 species have been published, with 948 algae and 672 lichen the majority. History Indigenous Australians have a long history with the flora of Western Australia. They have for over 50,000 years obtained detailed information on most plants. The information includes its uses as sources for food, shelter, tools and medicine. As Indigenous Australians passed the knowledge along orally or by example, most of this information has been lost, along many of the names they gave the flora. It was not until Europeans started to explore Western Australia that systematic written details of the flora comme ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Patersonia
''Patersonia'', commonly known as native iris or native flag and are native to areas from Malesia to Australia. Description They are perennials with basal leaves growing from a woody rhizome that in some species extends above ground to form a short trunk. The leaves are tough and fibrous, often with adaptations for conserving moisture, such as stomata sunk in grooves, a thickened cross-section, marginal hairs, and thickened margins. The flowers appear from between a pair of bracts on a leafless stem. They have three large outer tepals that are usually blue to violet, and three tiny inner tepals. There are three stamens fused at the base to form a tube around the longer gynoecium, style, which bears a flattened carpel, stigma.Goldblatt, P. (2011).
