VMS -- Botany (f96v)



This plant has leaves that look like arrow heads. It is called
Chenpodium bonus-henricus (Good King Henry). Chenpodium comes from the
term for goose foot in Greece (the leaves sort of look like geese feet).
There appears to be a very limited selection of photos on the internet.
If anyone finds other photos to scan or contribute, that would be very
much appreciated. Thank you.
