Copperpetal

Flower type: Perennial (Stores water in its leaves)

This small flower grows up to 6 inches (15 cm) tall. Its copper stem is thick and straight with a curved tip, and the large, yellow leaves are light emerald on the underside and are thin with smooth edges. A pair of leaves grow at the base of the flower head.

A single medium-sized flower sits at the end of the stem. The flowers are 3 cm (1.2 inches) wide, with solid copper petals decorated with dark brown lines and a orange central disk. The flower head is shaped like a cube made up of 7 tightly layered, round-tipped petals. They are very delicate.

It has a fairly strong scent that smells like leather, and it has excessive amounts of pollen. It is pollinated by the wind, but is also visited by a small species of bird.

Their seeds have hallucinogenic properties.
