Beet ( Beta vulgaris ) is a plant species in the Amaranthaceae family. It is a biennial herb—rarely perennial—that can reach a height of up to 200 cm. Its roots are fibrous, swollen, and fleshy (sometimes becoming woody), appearing in shades of dark red, white, yellow, or brown. The stems may grow upright or trail along the ground; they can be solitary or branched toward the top, with a ribbed and striated surface. B. vulgaris features basal leaves with long petioles, which may thicken and appear red, white, or yellow. The leaf blades range from oblanceolate to heart-shaped and vary in color from dark green to dark red. They are slightly fleshy, typically with a prominent midrib and entire or wavy margins, measuring 5–20 cm in length. Leaves higher up on the plant are smaller, with blades ranging from rhombic to narrowly lanceolate. The flowers are arranged in dense, spike-like inflorescences that appear interrupted toward the base. These tiny flowers are gathered in clusters of 1–3,...

Sawo kecik ( Manilkara kauki ) is a species in the Sapotaceae family; it is a tall tree reaching up to 30 meters in height with a trunk diameter of up to 100 cm. The trunk features thick buttresses rising up to 1.5 meters, and the bark is fissured and grooved. Young trees are typically straight, though they may sometimes be crooked or branched. M. kauki has thin bark and yellowish-white wood. Mature trees exhibit low branching; the clear bole (branch-free trunk section) averages 8–10 meters in height, with bark thickness of 0.5–2 cm and a diameter of 30–100 cm. The leaves are simple and clustered at the tips of the twigs; they are obovate (inverted egg-shaped) to broadly elliptic, measuring 5–15 cm in length and 3–8 cm in width. The upper surface is smooth, dark green, and glossy. The lower surface is covered in fine, velvety hairs and is grayish-brown; the base is tapered, while the apex is rounded to slightly notched. The midrib protrudes on the underside, and there are 9–30 pairs ...

Onion (Allium cepa) Onion ( Allium cepa ) is a plant species belonging to the Amaryllidaceae family. It is an herbaceous plant with a shallow, fibrous root system that branches out within the top 15–30 cm of the soil. At its base lies a thin, short, disc-like stem—the point of attachment for both the roots and the buds—from which a "pseudo-stem" (formed by overlapping leaf sheaths) rises; the portion of this structure located underground develops into a bulb. A. cepa features small, cylindrical, hollow leaves that reach lengths of 50–70 cm. These leaves are green, taper to a pointed tip, and are attached to relatively short stalks. Flower stalk emerges from the plant's growing point, reaching a length of 30–90 cm. At its apex, 50–200 individual flowers are arranged in an umbel (an umbrella-like cluster). Each flower consists of 5–6 white petals, 6 green or yellow stamens, a single pistil, and an ovary that is roughly triangular in shape. The fruit is round with a blun...
