folia

Look with insight into a small corner of the musical past, we learn from Savall, and history itself is folia writ large.

On my way to something else on YouTube, I happened on a word that invariably stops me dead: “folia,” meaning “madness” in several languages.

The host fungus for Liparis lilii­folia wasn’t common in the wild, but the orchid would germinate if the fungus was added.

When the bands of folia are very fine and tortuous the structure is called helizitic.

Of these, among the earliest to present themselves are usually the micas, that impart their characteristic silvery sheen to the surfaces of the folia along which they spread.
