@ripper@chaos.social leaves down might look correct, but consider the number of adaptations needed. For one there would have to be a method of orienting itself upside down. But also the structure of the nested cylinders breaks open at the top, whereas at the bottom they are nicely nested, which probably works a lot better for a solid fuel rocket! It's not like those floppy leaves will nicely cradle the flame, there too, the roots are more suitable for this adaptation.
