Saraca Schmidiana
''Saraca'' Carl Linnaeus, L. is a genus of flowering plants in the family (biology), family Fabaceae (legume family) of about 20 plant species of trees native to the lands from India and Sri Lanka to Indochina, southern China Malesia, and New Guinea. This plant can be grown outdoors in distinctly warm humid climates, and prefer a moist, well-drained soil with plenty of organic matter. It can also be grown within greenhouses. The trees themselves are grown for their clustered, upturned flowers in yellow, orange or red. The tree's flowers lack petals, having brightly colored sepals, and have stamens projecting up to eight inches long. The leaves are pinnate, with paired leaflets. Typically, these trees are accustomed to the shade of other trees. Most species of ''Saraca'' are associated with particular bodies of water. The species ''ashoka tree, Saraca asoca'' is believed to be the tree under which Gautama Buddha, Buddha was born. Saraca declinata, Red saraca is the provincia ...

Pinnate
Pinnation (also called pennation) is the arrangement of feather-like or multi-divided features arising from both sides of a common axis. Pinnation occurs in biological morphology, in crystals, such as some forms of ice or metal crystals, and in patterns of erosion or stream beds. The term derives from the Latin word ''pinna'' meaning "feather", "wing", or " fin". A similar concept is "pectination", which is a comb-like arrangement of parts (arising from one side of an axis only). Pinnation is commonly referred to in contrast to "palmation", in which the parts or structures radiate out from a common point. The terms "pinnation" and "pennation" are cognate, and although they are sometimes used distinctly, there is no consistent difference in the meaning or usage of the two words.Jackson, Benjamin, Daydon; ''A Glossary of Botanic Terms with their Derivation and Accent''. Gerald Duckworth & Co. London, 4th ed 1928. Plants Botanically, pinnation is an arrangement of discrete ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
