| Each floret is in the axil of a chaffy bract and these are arranged spirally or distichously in spikelets. |
|
| Lateral view of young inflorescence with basipetal initiation of flowers in the axil of bracts. |
|
| The flowers stand normally three together, in the axil of a foliole. |
|
| The leaves arise from a creeping, scaly rootstock, and the flowers are borne singly on a stalk that arises from the leaf axil. |
|
| Papaya and coconut have to keep up a steady rate of growth to be able to produce flowers and fruits in every leaf axil. |
|
| The number of flowers per axil should be observed on the middle third of the plant on the flower bud, before anthesis. |
|
| In addition to a terminal flower there may be several smaller lateral flowers in the axil of cupular bracts, each surrounded by its own small cupule. |
|
| The number of inflorescences per axil is determined by observing the leaf axils in the upper third of a one year old shoot, at flowering. |
|
| Being eager fruit eaters they easily climb into trees, where they also sleep at night, rolled up in the axil of a bough. |
|
| At each node, the rachilla bore a lemma in whose axil a floret axis ascended. |
|
| The anthocyanin coloration should be recorded as present if anthocyanin occurs in one or more of the following: seed, foliage, stem, axil, flower or pod. |
|
| Wollemi pine possesses the same unusual leaf axil anatomy as the other investigated members of the family. |
|
| The flowers are single, clustered, or in long spikes in the leaf axil. |
|
| When the vigorous shoots of a young grape are trained along the wire to form the permanent arms, repeated tipping ensures that side shoots emerge in virtually every leaf axil of these shoots. |
|
| Papaya and coconut form flowers in the axil of every leaf, pineapple and banana flower at the shoot tip after sufficient leaves have been produced to sustain fruit growth. |
|
| Planted narcissi bulbs produce daughter bulbs in the axil of the bulb scales, leading to the dying off of the exterior scales. |
|
| It is a small annual plant with linear pointed leaves and a white flower in the axil of each leaf. |
|
| With tall-growing cordons remove shoots that form in the axil of the leaves. |
|
| Sporangia reniform, borne in the axil of the sporophyll, green turning to yellow when mature, ca. |
|
| A Many people just snap off the old flower but you really should prune back further down the stem to a bud in the leaf axil facing outwards to open up the bush. |
