I also thought about Umbilicus rupestris yesterday - but for reasons other than botanical. That would be a promising candidate from the text analysis point of view. The You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. plant has been identified by many as Paris, which - as we discussed yesterday - was dubbed Umbilicus veneris in those times. Now, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. begins with the vord kshody. That's the vord which You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. begins with as well. Since in my contextual analysis approach I consider first vords of botanical folios as "potential plant names" (PPN's), having the same vord as PPN for two "umbilicus" plants would be something encouraging.
But the problem is that this one does not look very much like umbilicus rupestris - and I'd say that's for the buds and flowers rather than for the leaves...
...Any opinions on that?
