The results of a series of Soviet VENERA missions are the only existing direct observations of Venus' surface. Recently, a series of studies was devoted to strange entities in re-processed images that were returned from the surface of the planet Venus by theVENERA landers, 33 and 40 years ago. Experiments in television photography instrumented by the landers VENERA-13 and VENERA-14(March, 1 and 5, 1982)yielded 37 panoramas (or their fragments) of the Venus surface at the landing sites. The panoramas were re-examinedusing modern processing techniquesandrevealed “stems”-objects possessing apparent terramorphic features of Earth-like plants. “Plants” or “stems” are thin knotty vertical trunks on the surface of Venusthat have a thickness of 0.3-3 cm and are 0.2 to 0.5 m tall.On close objects, one can see that the “stem”at the top end is provided with a large bulge, a "burgeon" or “flower”, with petals surrounding a bright center.
