plant |
Having juvenile and mature leaves that differ distinctly in size and/or shape. |

architecture |
stomate |
Having several subsidiary cells oriented radially to its center. |

flower, perianth, calyx |
Having the sepals essentially alike in size and shape. |
|
raceme-like |
= racemiform |
architecture |
capitulescence, inflorescence |
Resembling a raceme, but not strictly such. |
|
catkinate |
= amentate |
architecture |
inflorescence |
Comprising one or more catkins. |
|
…ovulate |
= …ovuled |
architecture |
megasporophyll, ovary |
Having the number of ovules indicated by the previx; as in biovulate, multiovulate. |

Lacking sepals. |
|
pterocaulous |
|
architecture |
plant |
Having alate (winged) stems. |
|
wingless 2 |
= exalate |
architecture |
pollen grain |
Lacking lateral lobes or enations that resemble sacs or somewhat inflated wings. |
|
heterocephalous |
< heteromorphic |
architecture |
capitulescence, inflorescence |
Having heads that differ distinctly in size, shape, and/or constitution. |
|
bifacial |
|
architecture |
|
Having two opposite broad surfaces that differ distinctly in appearance. |
|
unijugate |
= bifoliolate, two-leafleted |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Compound with one pair of leaflets. |
|
connate-perfoliate |
|
architecture |
opposite laminar structures |
Having the bases in each pair fused and together encircling the bearing axis. See also amplexicaulous, perfoliate. |

architecture |
stomate |
Lacking subsidiary cells. |

|
labiate |
= lipped; > bilabiate, one-lipped, two-lipped, unilabiate |
architecture |
perianth, calyx, corolla |
Strongly zygomorphic with connate and/or coherent members some or all of whose distal portions form one or two lip-like structures. |
|
racemiform |
= raceme-like |
architecture |
capitulescence, inflorescence |
Resembling a raceme, but not strictly such. |

aseptate |
|
architecture |
|
Lacking internal walls or partitions (septae). |
|
simple-lipped |
