My two bits ! Commonly a plant or tree has by numbers leaf on top flowers second and fruits third ! Leaves leave behind a visual impression on sub-conscious , an over-all image which we store but do not care to describe ! Even from far , shape , size , gloss , hairs , undulation in wind , thickness ,petiole , petiole insertion , color ,venation , surface , tip....... and close inspection will reveal intricate venation , types of hairs , glands on lamina , petiole , rachis , hairs on veins .......so many characters ! What is important is , we store many of these information subconsciously , based on it we tell one species apart from other ......we notice differences without exactly knowing what is different ! To me this is an important process ! Right lobe first , left lobe later !!!
