Sky's Story of the Alternating Whorled Phytolaxy

if you look at these new pix, you can see that the new set of leaves is perpendicular to the last, as that set is perpendicular to the cotyledons. this is the "alternating" part of the whorled phytolaxy.

if it was just a whorled phytolaxy, the leaves would be parallel, with each other, much like a fern...

alternating doesn't mean the same thing in every phrase it's used in...

ok, a fern is a bad example, but i think you know what i mean...
