Arundhati: your question was about the leaf crown I take it and its arrangement of the leaves? you wanted to know the terms describing it?
the leaves along the stem grow in a* spiral* arrangement as you look at it from the side, along the up and down length of the stem.. and looking at the crown from top down the arrangement is called* whor*l ... reminds me of a closely arranged/spaced spokes of an umbrella... though botanist do not call it thus... I hope this leads you into exploring the terms on google and answers your questions.... good luck usha di On Sun, Sep 30, 2012 at 12:07 PM, ajinkya gadave <[email protected]>wrote: > *Dracena marginata **'Bicolor.* > > On Sun, Sep 30, 2012 at 12:01 PM, Arundhati Boyce < > [email protected]> wrote: > >> Hello, >> >> I'd love to know the name of this ornamental, it is around 5 feet tall. >> The arrangement of the leaves is quite splendid, I wonder if there is a >> term used to describe this kind of leaf arrangement.
