Has compound leaves and is a vining, herbaceous plant. No visible reproduction organs
Red morning glory. Five united reddish petals that turn to yellow in the center. Lobed, simple
alternate leaves. Herbaceous and vining.
This plant had alternate, compound trifoliate leaves. The stamens and styles were hidden inside. It also had zygomorphic flowers but not in the banner, wing, and keel structure. These are all characteristics of the Fabaceae family.
This was a vining plant with 5 connately fused petals into a funnel shape. It also had the star-like plications which are all three characteristics of the Convolvulaceae family.
Leaves are lobed and have alternate arrangement. 5 fused flowers. 5 fused sepals. 2 chambered ovaries.
Inflorescence a head/capitulum. Sepals modified into pappus. Inferior ovary.
Light green / reddish peduncle to a raceme inflorescence flower. Smooth stem. Simple leaves
Fruit is a berry, herbaceous, calyx surrounding fruit
1). Simple, alternate leaves
2). Racemes opposite of leaves and often droop
3). Reddish-purplish colored stems
1). Hairy plants tend to vine
2). Funnel like flower
3). Five star like folds
3 features that helped me ID this plant in the Convolvulaceae family includes:
Vining (herbaceous)
Funnel-like flowers
Star-like plications (plication-folds)
3 features I used to ID this in the Asteraceae family includes:
The inflorescence is a head/capitula.
Sepals modified into a pappus (pappus- modified sepals in the calyx that helps with wind dispersal and can be bristles, awns, scales, etc.).
Flowers with five fused petals and fused anthers into a tube.
Palmately compound leaves with 5 leaflets, vining, woody.
This plant has a basal rosette, green flowers on a dense spike, and waxy leaves.
this plant is an Asteraceae. the features that have it away were the inflorescence being a capitulum/head. The sepals have turned into a pappus. It has ray flowers and disk. Overall it looked very similar to a sunflower.
Inflorescences are capitulums with numerous white ray flowers and yellow disc flowers.
