cycads
are vascular, seed plants that are palm - like and are called Sago Palms . The leaves are found in a cluster at the tops of the trunks .
more than 300 million years now
the great importance of this taxon lies heavily on its contribution in understanding the evolution of seeds presence of nitrogen fixing bacteria in its roots
Manoxylic woods
large pith, wide cortex, spongy wood with lots of parenchyma, fewer tracheid’s
CYCADS
fern-like leaves-pinnate (use fern terminology) - petiole, rachis, pinnae
Thick stems with armor of bracts & leaf bases

phyllocladus
agathis
is an evergreen shrub or small tree growing to 8–30 ft (2.4–9 m) high. The green leaves are deeply lobed, up to 1 in (2.5 cm) long, although they can be longer. Red male strobili (cones) in bundles, summer.
Phyllocladus aspleniifolius var alpinus is found in subalpine forests in North and South Islands, New Zealand. The leaves are cladodes, flattened stems. Hardy in the UK
is one of the few species of conifers that can grow in the humid tropics. In the Philippines, Almaciga grows in almost all mountainous forests, but most particularly in Quezon, Zambales, Palawan, Cagayan, Abra, Kalinga Apayao, Nueva Vizcaya, Samar, Zamboanga and Davao. Almaciga, which can grow up to sixty meters tall with a trunk of three meters wide, produces valuable resin that can be used as a source of income for the many rural people in the Philippines

ORDER: nymphaeles
FAMILY: nympaeceae
evergreen trees or shrubs having aromatic oil cells
with glabrous, spiral, pellucid- punctate, exstipulate leaves,
the flowers with numerous, spiral tepals
austrobaileyales illiciaceae
perennial herbs or evergreen shrubs.
with jointed stems, opposite, simple leaves,
small, inconspicuous flowers in slender, terminal spikes
chloranthaceae
monoecious species, with hermaphrodite flowers, greenish white
white to yellow are glabrous or downy and pale to yellowish brown.
The perianth is glabrous or puberulent outside and densely pubescent inside.
The purplish-black fruit is an ovate, ellipsoidal or subglobose drupe.
cinnamomum spp.
Leathery evergreen ovate to elliptic leaves (to 10” long) are glossy dark green above and variable pale green to gray-brown beneath.
Fragrant white flowers (to 8-12” diameter) usually have six petals.
Flowers bloom in late spring, with sparse continued flowering throughout the summer.

zingeberaceae
shrubs, tree-like, or vines, palms have two methods of growth: solitary or clustered
Palms have large, evergreen leaves that are either palmately ('fan-leaved') or pinnately ('feather- leaved') compound and spirally arranged at the top of the stem
arecaceae = palmae
monocotyledonous flowering plants in which flowers are borne on a type of inflorescence called a spadix.
rhizomatous or tuberous
often found to contain calcium oxalate crystals or raphide
araceae
wha family is this?
belanophoraceae
leaves are alternate and adaxially circinate
with at least one leaf surface containing hairs with mucilage-producing glands at the tip
flowers are bisexual, usually with three carpels and five sepals, petals and
stamens
droceraceaae
sn: drosera rotundifolia l.
main part of a bladderwort plant always lies beneath the surface of its substrate.
terrestrial species sometimes produce a few photosynthetic leaf-shoots.
form long, thin, sometimes branching stems or stolons beneath the surface of their substrate
lentibulariaceae
evergreen shrubs or lianas
leaves are opposite or whorled, or alternate in some species
flowers are white, pink, red, or orange, and are produced singly or in large panicles.
melatomataceae
sn: medinillia sp.
mitrastemonaceae
easily distinguished from other plants, as they share some very evident derived characteristics or synapomorphies.
Among these are: bilateral symmetry of the flower (zygomorphism),
nearly always highly modified petal (labellum), fused stamens and carpels, and extremely small seeds.
orchidaceae
trees, shrubs, lianas, vines, epiphytes, and perennial herbs
leaves are very long and narrow, sheathing, simple, undivided, with parallel veins;
the leaf margins and abaxial midribs are often prickly
pandanacaea
The monster flower consists of about 28 species native to Southeast Asia, all of which are parasitic upon the roots of Tetrastigma vines (family Vitaceae).
The genus includes the giant , sometimes known as the corpse flower, which produces the largest known individual flower of any plant species in the world and is found in the forested mountains of Sumatra and Borne
