Welwitschia is often referred to as a tree or dwarf tree, which seems reasonable. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&i...a+tree&spell=1 ******** A tenuous line of reasoning! Welwitschia (only) gives 14200 hits Welwitschia plant gives 4270 hits Welwitschia tree gives 3110 hits Welwitschia car gives 2640 hits "Welwitschia plant" gives 322 hits "Welwitschia tree" gives 4 hits Going by number of hits and by this line of reasoning the idea that Welwitschia is a car is almost as likely as the idea that it is a tree. You might as well say that as 4/322 = 0.0124 that the idea that Welwitschia is a tree has a presence well below the 5% border and is statististically not significant. Actually the first listed hit for Welwitschia http://www.namibweb.com/welwitschia.htm has it pretty much right: " The plant resembles a woody carrot. " PvR |
