What are the distinguishing features between these two? Fide Stace, Omphalodes verna is rhizomatous and stoloniferous, and Pentaglottis sempervirens isn't. Thanks :-) Well, we can't tell those from the pic. Pentaglottis is quite a stiffly hairy/bristly plant? That is also hard to tell from the picture but the poster can check that more easily that the roots. Even as a field botanist, 30 years ago, I could never make head nor tail of stolons and rhizomes (while on hands and knees in the rain in dense vegetation) and it is a very destructuve field character (having to pull up plant to see roots). I go with Pentaglottis. |
