Sagittaria latifolia | Common Arrowhead | Rabbit’s Head




Survival Plants Memory Course show

Summary: MNEMONIC EXPLAINED: When you see an upside-down rabbit's head (common leaf shape [2 "pointed" leaf lobes/ears that are half as long or longer than the blade/head {like a rabbit}] and common leaf position [leaves are usually found with the 2 leaf lobes/ears pointing down; like an upside-down rabbit's head]), vividly imagine a rabbit floating on it's back after a flood (reminds you that this is an aquatic plant; loves moist or wet ground). Quickly! Throw the rabbit a life line (the line or rope represents the plant's lateral growing rhizomes [root system]) and pull it to safety. The first thing you notice, after the rabbit is on shore, is a very lager taranchula spider (leaf veins all originate from a single point [where leaf blade meets leaf stalk] like the legs from the spiders body) that crawls from the rabbit's stomach. The taranchula thanked the rabbit for saving it's life by letting him ride rather than letting him drown. They both turn to thank you then the 3 (white rabbit among 3 subjects represent the 3 white petals of each flower and the white milky sap contained in the leaves and stems) of you go your separate ways (the 3 white petals are evenly spaced; like the lines of the Mercedes Benz logo).
