Talk:Aralia nudicaulis

Whole plant just one Entire Leaf?"[edit]

The slender stem of the plant grows straight up from the ground and divides into a whorl of 3 stems which branch up and out, each forming 3 to 7 (most often 5) pinnately compound leaflets; leaflets ovate, acute, serrate, green.[1]^[1] Technically, all the leaflets on one plant are considered to be one entire leaf, and the stems that connect the leaflets are called Rachis; this arrangement is called doubly-compound. In some cases some of the leaflets are further completely subdivided, forming a triply-compound pattern.

It is very confusing that a group of leaflets is considered one "entire leaf" -- even a group of groups of groups are just one leaf?! Needs much more explanation! -74.75.213.191 (talk) 21:10, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
