  • Cardamine (Car-dá-mi-ne, Bittercress or Bitter-cress), is a large genus in the family Brassicaceae. It contains more than 150 species of annuals and perennials. The genus grows worldwide in diverse habitats, except in the Antarctic. Genus Dentaria is a synonym for Cardamine.


    The leaves can have different forms, going from minute to medium-sized. They can be pinnate or bipinnate. They are basal and cauline (growing on the upper part of the stem), with narrow tips. They are rosulate (forming a rosette). The blade margins can be entire, serrate or dentate. The stem internodes lack firmness.


    The radially symmetrical flowers grow in a racemose many-flowered inflorescence or in corymbs. The white, pink or purple flowers are minute to medium-sized. The petals are longer than the sepals. The fertile flowers are hermaphroditic.


    The fruits are long, thin pods with many (20-100) seeds.


    Some plants were reputed to have medicinal qualities (treatment of heart or stomach ailments).


    The name Cardamine is derived from the Greek word kardamon, referring to a Persian or Indian herb with pungent leaves.

  • In the game it would seem that Cardamine is a tall, orange plant. It grows densely and is hardy enough to inhabit most of Malta's soils. The blades of grass are sharp enough to be hazardous to pedestrians. What else do we know about the FL variety of the plant? ^^
