DEFINITION OF TERMS

Phyllotaxy- refers to the Leaf Laminar Shape- to
pattern or arrangement of locate the axis or, in some
leaves on the stem or cases, the zone of greatest
branch of a plant. It is of width that lies perpendicular
three types, alternate, to the axis of greatest length
opposite, and whorled. (long axis)

Alternate type – this is Leaf Base - of a leaf is the
characterized by only one leaf at lower part of the lamina,
each node. where it is attached to the
Opposite - it is characterized by petiole or stem.
two leaves in one node.
Whorled – it is characterized by
three leaves or more per node.

Leaf tip/ Apex- The apex is the Leaf margin - is the edge of

tip of the leaf blade. the leaf lamina lying between

Leaf Organization- is the the apex and base. Entire

Palmately compound, indentations or incisions.
Ternate, Spinnately Revolute margins are rolled

Leaf Veins- They are just

called veins, but collectively,

the pattern of veins on a leaf

are called its venation.
