Illustration] The Ginkgo-tree, the Indian Corn, and the Calla Lily have parallel-veined leaves.
Tall shrubs, with straight-veined leaves, and yellow, perfect or polygamous flowers.
The parallel-veined leaves of monocotyledons have stems without distinction of wood, bark and pith; the netted-veined leaves of dicotyledons have exogenous stems.
They have already distinguished parallel-veined from netted-veined leaves, and learned that this difference is a secondary distinction between monocotyledons and dicotyledons.
All plants with definitely parallel-veined leaves may be identified through this division, unless the parts of the flower are distinctly in fives.
All plants with definitely net-veined leaves may be identified through this division.
Note the tendency to net-veined leaves in a monocotyledonous plant.
The linking of parallel-veined leaves and a single seed leaf, and net-veined leaves with two seed leaves, is also associated with very definite arrangement of their flower parts, their method of growth and other characters.
The above list will hopefully provide you with a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "veined leaves" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this group of words.
