two-lipped
Having two lips
Two-lipped describes something divided into two lip-like parts.
The term appears most often in botany, where a two-lipped corolla has petals fused into upper and lower sections resembling an open mouth: the two-lipped flowers of mint and snapdragon.
Less commonly, it describes anything with two projecting edges or lobes.
