In inflorescences these two different growth patterns are called indeterminate and determinate respectively, and indicate whether a terminal flower is formed and where flowering starts within the inflorescence. Indeterminate inflorescence: Monopodial (racemose) growth. The terminal bud keeps growing and forming lateral flowers.
Vascular plants with monopodial growth habits grow upward from a single point. They add leaves to the apex each year and the stem grows longer accordingly. They add leaves to the apex each year and the stem grows longer accordingly.
Thrixspermum trichoglottis is a monopodial orchid in the subfamily Epidendroideae. ... inflorescence 1-2 flowers, with a long bract about 10 cm long, scale like;
Laelia superbiens, a sympodial orchid.. In botany, sympodial growth is a bifurcating branching pattern where one branch develops more strongly than the other, resulting in the stronger branches forming the primary shoot and the weaker branches appearing laterally. [1]
Usually 8-16 flowers are born on an inflorescence, with multiple racemes possible resulting in a flower count in the thousands. The flowers form two rows on the single inflorescence. The species contains one subspecies, namely Tridactyle bicaudata subsp. rupestris.
The inflorescence is compacted into a many-flowered spike, or a simple or branched raceme, and is apical, although it can seem axillary. Stems are monopodial (unbranched) until an inflorescence is formed, and then sympodial (potentially branched); this prevents the rosette from dying as in Agave.
The epiphytic plants have pendulous, monopodial stems, which bear distichously arranged, lanceolate leaves, which form sheaths around the stem. The widely spreading flowers are produced on lateral, laxly several flowered inflorescences .
Renanthera matutina is a monopodial epiphytic orchid that produces a long branched pendulous stem about 60–80 centimetres (24–31 in) long, bearing the inflorescence. The numerous flowers are pinkish-yellow, with red spots.
