I have never seen a Drosophyllum "in the flesh", but from its appearance I have
always assumed that it was monocotyledonous as opposed to being a dicot?? - thus
surely it would not bear 'seed leaves' as people might expect but have at most,
if not emergent directly from the seed, a coleoptile?

Puzzled,
