A flower bearing leaf is called a bract.

When a flower arises in the axil of a leaf-like structure, this structure is known as bract.

A specialized leaf smaller than a foliage leaf is typically referred to as a bract. Bracts serve various functions, such as protecting flowers or enhancing plant attractiveness. Examples include the colorful bracts of poinsettias or the spathes of peace lilies.

They hide seeds in pinecones.

The conifers hide their seeds in the ovuliferous scales and bract scales of the cones.

It is called a Bract, and is a modified leaf.

Commonly found on plants such as Bougainvillea and Euphorbia/ Poinsettia

A bract is a leaf-like or scale-like plant part, usually small, sometimes showy or brightly colored, and located just below a flower, a flower stalk, or an inflorescence that serves the function of attracting pollinators, either together with the perianth or instead of it.

Dumbcane (Dieffenbachia) is a flowering plant. It produces a unique white spadix flower that is surrounded by a leaf-like bract.

The coloured part of the Poinsettia, red,pink or white. is a bract or modified leaf. The flower is the small yellow parts in the centre. The Latin name is Euphorbia pulcherrima.

Most bracket fungi are not known to be poisonous to humans. However, some species can cause allergic reactions in some individuals, so it's best to avoid consuming them unless you are absolutely sure of their identification and safety for consumption.

The indigenous peoples in the area of Taxco were the first known group to have cultivated the poinsettia. Because of the plant's brightly blooming bract colors in December, it also came to the subsequent attentions of European missionaries and settlers in the 17th century. But widespread knowledge of its existence only ensued with the arrival of Americans from the neighboring United States in the 19th century.

The single leaf of a flower is called a sepal. Sepals are typically green and located beneath the petals of a flower.

Yes, when conifer seeds are fully formed, they are typically released from the cones either by drying out and opening or by being eaten and spread by animals. This dispersal mechanism helps conifer seeds to be spread away from the parent tree, increasing their chances of germination and survival.

Are you sure they are shedding flowers ? Many people don't realise that the flowers on a bougainvillea are not at all conspicuous. They are very, very pale yellow in colour, trumpet shaped, and very narrow in relation to their length. They are truly tiny by comparison with the brightly coloured objects that look like medium sized and brightly coloured flowers. These beautiful "flowers", often as large as an inch or more across are not in fact flowers. The "petals" are actually a modified form of leaf called a bract. Plants do shed their leaves, and this includes bracts. If you want to look again at your bougainvilles, get up close and take a magnifying glass.

Bracts are modified leaves that protect and encase immature flowers in plants. They often resemble petals in appearance but serve a different protective function for the developing flower buds.

There are lots of ways to take care of the lucky bamboo. One of the methods I have used for myself and found to be really effective are:

1. Pure water

The water in the pot needs to be replaced with fresh, clean water once a week and the little pot should be scrubbed to prevent calcium or mineral deposits from building up on the edge of the pot and on the plant stem.

2. Pruning and propagating

The plants may be pruned to a more manageable and attractive size, taking care to make a clean cut just above the leaf bract.

3. Trimming of toes

It's okay to take the plant out of the water, gently remove the gravel it has embraced, and then prune back the root system. Keep in mind that you only want to do this during the "dormant" growing season which, in the Pacific Northwest, begins about mid-October when deciduous trees begin to lose their leaves.

4. Yellow streak

Lucky Bamboo should not be placed in direct sunlight. Diffused outdoor light is best. If you notice the leaves yellowing, immediately examine for diseases or pests.

Most druse crystals found in plants are made of calcium oxalate star-like in shape. They are thought to deter herbivory, and a number of species of plants are poisonous to humans, as well as animals, due to the high calcium oxalate.

The three major parts of a flower are the petals, the sepals, and the reproductive organs (stamen and pistil). The petals are often colorful and attract pollinators, while the sepals protect the flower bud. The reproductive organs consist of the stamen, which produces pollen, and the pistil, which contains the ovary where seeds develop.

They are not "eyes", its just how a pineapple looks from the outside.

The pineapple fruit is a terminal, cylindrical, compound structure at the apex of the stem and is formed by the fusion of the berrylike fruitlets, the EYES that develop from the flowers:

The stem of pineapple bears flowers, each of which ripens into a fruitlet. A fruitlet contains all of the parts of a complete flower including sepals, petals, stamens and a pistil with a stigmatic surface where pollination takes place, as well as an ovary where the fruitlet's seeds develop.

The shell is composed of sepal and bract tissues and the spices of the ovaries. These are the remains of the flowers which persist after the fruit is formed and each one manifests itself as a different one of the fruit's 'eyes'.

The complete fruit "pineapple" forms a "fusion"

The number of petals depends on the flower species. You'd need to be more ... er ... specific about what kind of flower you meant for us to answer the question. If you're just looking for a rough answer, "between 3 and 6" is a fairly good guess. Eudicots (not a species, but a large group) generally have 4 or 5 petals and monocots (another lage group) tend to have either 3 or 6 petals. (There are many exceptions to this rule, though, so if you want a definitive answer you need to specify the kind of flower you mean. Also, be aware that a lot of things you think of as "petals" may not technically be petals; the bright red part of poinsettia plants, for example, is actually a kind of leaf called a "bract".)

The letters can be used to spell the 7 letter word curtail and the 6 letter words brutal, burial, italic, ritual and tribal. The also spell the 5 letter words alibi, artic, blurt, brail, built, curia, trail, trial and ultra.

Bianbai wood comes from the tree Platycladus Orientalis (generic Chinese arborvitae), a large evergreen shrub or small to medium-sized tree. The common name for this tree is Book-Leaf Pine. This tree is native to China, Japan, Taiwan, and parts of the Republic of Russia and the Ukraine. It can be successfully grown--although considered an exotic--in such diverse areas as Poland, Iran, France, New Zealand, and Hawaii, USA, as it is a hardy tree and tolerates a wide variety of soil types and climate conditions.

DESCRIPTION and BIOLOGY:

P. orientalis rarely exceeds the height of 20m in nature; cultivated, it often forms multiple stems with a dense habit, usually broadly conical with ascending branches from bare stems. Leaves are light green or yellow-green, becoming brown after 3 or 4 seasons, persistent, scale-like, in opposite-decussate pairs, and have no glands.

Pollen cones terminal, small (2-3 mm long), seed cones 20-25 mm long, 10-18mm wide when closed, glaucous green at first, turning reddish-brown, usually have 6-8 fleshy scales in an opposite-decussate arrangement, with a deeply recurved dorsal hook below the tip of each scale; this protuberance is the apical part of the bract, around which the fleshy scale develops after the ovules are fertilized, to nearly engulf the bract; scales glaucous when growing, maturing and ripening to bright brown; lower 4 scales fertile with 2-3 seeds occurring adaxially near the base of the lowest pair, only

one on the upper pair.

Seeds 5-7mm long, 3-4mm diameter, more or less ovate, wingless. Seed-bearing begins, on average, at 3 years.

This is a monotypic genus; the generic name comes from the Greek word platyclados (with a broad stem). The Greek word results in two English words plate and clad which conjures up the image of plates arranged in a rack as the tree's foliage appears when viewed from afar. The peculiar arrangement of upright branchlets and flattened lateral twigs gives this tree its unusual leafing habit and explains the origin of its common name (Book-Leaf Pine).

PRODUCTS:

Timber: Wood close-grained and knotty, heartwood dark brown, sapwood white or cream. The timber is used for gateposts and furniture.

Medicine: Parts of P. orientalis were previously used to treat scurvy. Leaf extracts have been shown to inhibit bacterial growth.

Essential Oils: Leaves, wood, bark, and seed shells of have been steam-distilled, and the resulting essential oils and their constituents analysed by GC/MS (mass spectrometry). Essential oils from leaves and seed shells have been found to contain more than 20 mono- and sesqui-terpenes, the most important being alpha-pinene (constituting 40% of the oil), DELTA3-carene, and cedrol.

Other: Seeds from P. orientalis contain terpenoids.

Uses:

Ornamental: The Chinese arbovitae is planted in many gardens, especially for its striking pale green foliage with odd-looking glaucous cones.

Boundary, Barrier, or Support: It tolerates pruning and is therefore used as a hedge plant.

Other: This tree is highly esteemed in mystical Chinese folklore, and was planted within tombs of ancient emperors. It's seeds were also placed within the caskets. More recently, P. orientalis has become popular as a hiking staff/walking stick.

It counts on what kind of Parrots. some parrots like the scarlet Macaw have a very pretty wings when they are spread open for flight the colors on the scarlet macaw wings are Red, Green, Yellow and blue.
