Botany / Flowers
English term or phrase: duck
Hallo!

Kann mir jemand sagen, um welche Blume es sich bei "duck" handelt? Habe eine Auflistung mit diversen Blümchen und bei duck und rook feather (siehe andere Frage) bin ich total überfragt.

Vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe.

neutral  Stephan Briol: Du meinst die "Common Duckweed" (Lemna minor). Daneben gibt es aber auch z.B. "Ivy Leaf Duckweed" (Lemna trisulca) oder "Tropical Duckweed" (Pistia stratiotes). Vilelleicht ist sogar die "Flying Duck Orchid" gemeint...

  -> Wenn es hier tatsächlich nur um Blumen ginge, ja. Da gäbe es auch noch Lemna minuta oder Lemna turionifera. Aber sieh Dir mal die nächste Frage der Fragestellerin an.
