The leaves of this plant all arise from the stem and are classified as the veitative root. The leaves have a long thin shape which allows them to absorb light easily as well as regulate the temperature of the plant. This plant does not have any visual reproductive organs because it is seedless and reproduces asexualy with spores. The plant is seedless because it does not appear to produce seeds or buds. The size of the plant is about 2 feet in diameter and about 4 inches tall. This fits in with the characteristics of a seedless plant because it has to be small in order to maintain water efficiently. This plant was discovered in the saltwater wetland habitat near the coast and around other saltwater plants such as mangroves. |
