Botany Basics | How to Identify Different Plant Species Around You

[@AngSu]

SUMMARY for myself (Will continue watch later) 2 main Root types - Taproot (like carrots) - Fibrous (common roots) - Adventitious (unusual roots, from stems or leaves) - Prop Stems - Woody (base, trees, shrubs,sub shrubs) - Forbs (anything that isn’t a grass) Flowering Annual (Spring to frost) Perennial (usually flower in 2-3 year ) For broad leaved trees (like Evergreen magnolia) - Leaf shape (more for species) & texture are main identifiers - leaf arrangement (for families) Node, flat base (typical), petiole Leaf arrangement - Opposite , Alternate, Whorled - Compound leaf (Clover, not like Maple) Feathered margin (pinnate, palmate veins) Veins include - Xylem - water - Phloem - sugar Leaf margins Jagged - serrate (maybe easier to get photosynthesis instead of producing entire leaf) Leaf hair - trichomes - regulate temp, protect radiation, prevent water loss, slow evaporation FLOWER - reproduction, fruit, - pollination & fertilisation Inflorescence (flower arrangement) - determinate (production stop at certain pt, start from centre) - indeterminate (start from base)

When I grew up in the Amazon, we knew each plant by the smell of the crushed leaf.

[@duran9664]

‼️🆘‼️ I don’t care about the types of roots more than the reason why my indoor plants 🪴 keep dying even though I have been spoiling them more than my kids? 😒😒
