These stolon-like rhizomes are long and thin, with long internodes and indeterminate growth with lateral buds at the node, which mostly remain dormant. [citation needed] In potatoes, the stolons [15] start to grow within 10 days of plants emerging above ground, with tubers usually beginning to form on the end of the stolons. [16]
A stolon is similar to a rhizome, but stolon sprouts from an existing stem having long internodes and generating new shoots at the ends, they are often also called runners such as in the strawberry plant. [9] Stolons growing from nodes from a corm of Crocosmia
Utricularia inflata is one of the larger suspended aquatic species in the genus Utricularia.Like all aquatic Utricularia, U. inflata has no true roots or leaves. The filiform stolons are the main vegetative "stem" of the plant and can be up to one meter long or longer but are only 1–2 mm thick.
Iris stolonifera is a plant species in the genus Iris; it is also in the subgenus Iris, and in the section Regelia.It is a rhizomatous perennial, from the mountains of Turkestan, between Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Afghanistan.
A geophyte (earth+plant) is a plant with an underground storage organ including true bulbs, corms, tubers, tuberous roots, enlarged hypocotyls, and rhizomes. Most plants with underground stems are geophytes but not all plants that are geophytes have underground stems. Geophytes are often physiologically active even when they lack leaves.
The stems are slender, creeping stolons, green to reddish-green in color, connecting plants to each other. [2] It has long-stalked, green, rounded apices which have smooth texture with palmately netted veins. [2] The leaves are borne on pericladial petioles, [clarification needed] around 2 cm (0.79 in).
Agrostis stolonifera is stoloniferous and may form mats or tufts. The prostrate stems of this species grow to 0.4–1.0 metre (1 ft 4 in – 3 ft 3 in) long with 2–10-centimetre (0.79–3.94 in) long leaf blades and a panicle reaching up to 40 cm (16 in) in height.
Runner – an elongated, slender branch that roots at the nodes or tip. Stolon – A branch that forms near the base of the plant, grows horizontally, and roots and produces new plants at the nodes or apex. Stoloniferous – plants producing stolons. Semi-erect – Not growing perfectly straight.
