“Scapes or peduncles terminated by a single head, involucrate by some outer empty bracts.”

“In addition to flowers, intense signals were also obtained in young involucral bracts.”

“Note that the outer involucral bracts on the bud are at right angles, a characteristic of southern dandelions.”

“The lateral nerves of the involucral leaves are sometimes very faint, and disappear in drying, while the median nerve becomes more prominent.”
