The difference between Dianthus superbus and Polygonum multiflorum

1. Difference of blades

The leaves of Dianthus superbus are opposite, linear-lanceolate, about 5-10 cm long, 3-5 mm wide, with a sharp tip and a sheath-like base. They are green in color, sometimes slightly pink-green. The flat leaves are alternate, lanceolate to elliptical, with pointed or obtuse tips, cuneate bases, and green in color.

2. The difference between flowers

The superbus flower grows at the top of the branches. The calyx is tubular, with 4-6 bracts, which are broadly ovate. The petals are light pink or light purple, slightly curled, and deeply fissured at the tip. The flat-flowered flowers are clustered in axillary clusters of 6-10. The flowers are green with white edges and 5 deep lobes.
