Yeah I know, Im just finding out about it

It was introduced into England about 1732 though it will only grow as a stove plant, with tanners' bark. The plant is an herbaceous perennial, with a creeping rhizome with upward-curving, fleshy, cylindrical tubers covered with large, thin scales that leave rings of scars. The flowering stem reaches a height of 6 feet, and bears creamy flowers at the ends of the slender branches that terminate the long peduncles. They grow in pairs. The numerous, ovate, glabrous leaves are from 2 to 10 inches in length, with long sheaths often enveloping the stem.

I was stuck on the whole "you can only use these letters" thinking it was a five letter word I was looking for.

I kept searching and noticed Arrowroot only had those letters in it. No more no less. And none of the letters were only used twice.

nickspoon · Post by **nickspoon** » 20-07-2005 22:07

You could, but the elephant wouldn't thank you.

An eel called Dauth?

TheAssimilationist · Post by **TheAssimilationist** » 20-07-2005 22:13

of course he wouldn't, elephants can't talk.

nickspoon · Post by **nickspoon** » 20-07-2005 22:14

But he'd probably try to eat you.
