The important thing about the VMS drawing, and this is what really impresses me about it, is that it shows both stages of growth of the rhizome.
- There is the left side, with rows of spiral leaf scars (with pores showing where the leaf has fallen off)—that's the old growth.
- There is the right side. This is the leading side, the new growth. Notice that there are no leaf scars, it is scaly, because this is the part that seeks a new area to grow to and eventually will sprout leaves.
It's one of the coolest drawings in the VMS.
