Bloodbloom

Flower type: Annual (Stores water in the thickened base of its stem)

This average-sized flower grows up to 1.2 feet (36 cm) tall. Its green stem is thin, and the giant, pink-red leaves are dark orange-yellow on the underside and are thin with serrated edges. The leaves alternate on the stem from the base up to about halfway.

6 to 9 large flowers grow on alternate sides up the length of the stem. The flowers are 6 cm (2.4 inches) wide, with each petal a slightly different shade of light brown. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of up to 30 petals. They detach easily.

It has a fairly strong scent that smells like blood, and it has very little pollen; it does not cause many allergic reactions. It is pollinated by the wind.


It usually houses a colony of beneficial insects.
