Hi. My name is Rachel Robinson and I’m a veterinary student from http://riversideveterinaryclinic.net. I am actually reading up on veterinarian scientific research and medicine subject matters for a crucial assignment associated with particular professional researches our team are undertaking at the center. I discovered several intriguing and useful information and facts browsing the materials in this web site therefore simply just intended to thank you. Carry on with the great work!
Your rosaceae flower also have many stamen! I also used a rose, multiflora rose, as an example of that characteristic. Roses do a great job of showing the characteristic of many stamen!
I wonder why some of the creeper leaves turn read before others? If all the leaves on one plant are connected by common vasculature and getting the same hormonal and light cues about season change, why do some senesce before others?
Great pictures and I liked the way you had something in the pictures to reference the size of the plant or plant part.
I used the Joe pye weed as my plant that produces achenes. The whorled leaves in groups of 4 helped me identify this plant in Newcomb’s.
