A seed pot used in horticulture for sowing and taking plant cuttings and growing plugs. Germination glass (glass sprouter jar) with a plastic sieve -lid. Brassica campestris germinating seeds. Germination is usually the growth of a plant contained within a seed resulting in the formation of the seedling. It is also the process of reactivation ...
The bud of a Regent vine located between the stem and petiole. The grape starts its annual growth cycle in the spring with bud break. In the Northern Hemisphere, this stage begins around March while in the Southern Hemisphere it begins around September when daily temperatures begin to surpass 10 °C (50 °F).

Grass seedlings (150-minute time lapse) A seedling is a young sporophyte developing out of a plant embryo from a seed. Seedling development starts with germination of the seed. A typical young seedling consists of three main parts: the radicle (embryonic root), the hypocotyl (embryonic shoot), and the cotyledons (seed leaves).
Many species of plants have seeds that delay germination for many months or years, and some seeds can remain in the soil seed bank for more than 50 years before germination. Seed dormancy is especially adaptive in fire-prone ecosystems. [4] [5] Some seeds have a very long viability period, and the oldest documented germinating seed was nearly ...
An annual plant is a plant that completes its life cycle, from germination to the production of seeds, within one growing season, and then dies. Globally, 6% of all plant species and 15% of herbaceous plants (excluding trees and shrubs) are annuals. [1] The annual life cycle has independently emerged in over 120 different plant families ...

In biology, phototropism is the growth of an organism in response to a light stimulus. Phototropism is most often observed in plants, but can also occur in other organisms such as fungi.
Certain plants always grow as vines, while a few grow as vines only part of the time. For instance, poison ivy and bittersweet can grow as low shrubs when support is not available, but will become vines when support is available. [5] A vine displays a growth form based on very long stems. This has two purposes.
