Re: Fw: Pale Indian Plantain -ethnobotanical info ? try this:


I've heard the parallel veins on plantains and rattlesnake masters 
and some other dicots originate from redcuction of the leaf blade and 
developmental widening of the petiole (which has parallel veins) into 
a leaflike form. 

Any plant antomists out there who wish to add to this?
