Some apply it to the leaflets of a pinna, especially the leaflets of bipinnate or tripinnate leaves. [7] Others also or alternatively apply it to second or third order divisions of a bipinnate or tripinnate leaf. [8] It is the ultimate free division (or leaflet) of a compound leaf, or a pinnate subdivision of a multipinnate leaf.
The leaves are tripinnate, finely divided and lacy, and overall triangular in shape. The leaves are 5–15 cm (2–6 in) long, [5] bristly and alternate in a pinnate pattern that separates into thin segments. The flowers are small and dull white, clustered in flat, dense umbels. The umbels are terminal and about 8–15 cm (3–6 in) wide.
Cyanothamnus bipinnatus is an erect shrub that grows to a height of about 1 m (3.3 ft) with pimply, glandular stems and bipinnate or tripinnate leaves. The leaves are mostly 21–50 mm (0.83–2.0 in) long and 20–60 mm (0.79–2.4 in) wide in outline with between seven and eleven leaflets, on a petiole 4–15 mm (0.16–0.59 in) long.
The bandicoot berry is an evergreen shrub which usually grows to about 4 m (13 ft) high, but can occasionally be taller. [4] [5] It is a multistemmed plant with large tripinnate leaves measuring up to 1 m (3 ft 3 in) long, while the individual leaflets measure up to 21 cm (8.3 in) long by 9 cm (3.5 in) wide.
Two of my favorite spring plants, almost entirely based upon their progression from bud to leaf, are beech trees and false hellebore. Why the unfolding leaves of beech trees and other plants ...
Cyanothamnus inflexus is an erect, woody shrub that grows to a height of about 2 m (7 ft) and a width of about 3 m (10 ft). The leaves are pinnate, 6–25 mm (0.2–1 in) long and 6–35 mm (0.2–1 in) wide in outline on a petiole 3–10 mm (0.1–0.4 in) long.
Their deep, dark hue is an indicator of their substantial anthocyanins, bioactive compounds that may help reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, says Sheri Gaw, RDN, CDCES, a dietitian specializing ...
From its underground base, the plant will begin sending up hollow, cane-like, 4-sided stems with swollen nodes and large, tripinnate leaves; foliage near the ground is quickly shed. The pendant or nodding flowerheads are 7.5–15 centimetres (3–6 inches) across, with ray florets , typically a lavender or mauvish-pink in colour.
