The two species, moreover, do not always agree in the position of the foliar resin-ducts.
With reference to the green tissue the foliar duct may be in one of four positions.
Wondering if a hidden cause of what appeared to be moisture stress might actually be nutrient deficiencies, I tried spraying liquid fertilizer directly on these gnarly leaves, a practice called foliar feeding.
Sadly, in terms of nutrient balance, the poorestfoliar sprays are organic.
Fertilizing, Fertigating and Foliar Spraying In our heavily leached region almost no soil is naturally rich, while fertilizers, manures, and potent composts mainly improve the topsoil.
Foliar feeding is another water-wise technique that keeps plants growing through the summer.
Organic gardeners may fertigate with combinations of fish emulsion and seaweed at the same dilution used for foliar spraying, or with compost/manure tea.
Foliar spraying and fertigation are two occasions when I am comfortable supplementing my organic fertilizers with water-soluble chemical fertilizers.
However, after the vines are a foot long or so, foliar feeding every week or 10 days will increase the yield.
The most useful possible organicfoliar is 1/2 to 1 tablespoon each of fish emulsion and liquid seaweed concentrate per gallon of water.
The latter property is seen in the foliartendrils of Bignonia capreolata and in the axial tendrils of Ampelopsis.
We have seen that some tendrils owe their origin to modified leaves, and others to modified flower-peduncles; so that some are foliar and others axial in their nature.
From this occasional elongation of the nucleus, as well as from the foliar nature of the ovular coats, Prof.
These data strongly support the notion of the foliar nature of the coatings, and of the axial nature of the nucleus, taking leaf and axis either in the ordinary sense, or as modifications one of the other.
In Cobæa scandens the foliar nature of the tendril is shown by the occasional presence of a small leaflet on one of the branches of the tendril, and a similar appearance may frequently be seen in Eccremocarpus scaber.
Lateral foliar prolification of the inflorescence= is of more common occurrence than the preceding.
Probably it may occasionally be invested by sheathing coats, more analogous to tubular processes from the receptacle, than to foliar organs, as is the case in Welwitschia.

Such partial malformations obey a rule, that is common to them and to otherfoliar enations, viz.
The winding of the foliar screw must [651] curve the longitudinal ribs.
In the same way double ascidia may be made use of to explain the foliar cups of the teasels and some other plants, as for instance, some European snakeroots (Eryngium maritimum and E.
The same holds good for the adhesion of foliar to axial organs, of branches to stems and other cases of union.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "foliar" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
