A scorpoid cyme, as seen in the sundew, Sedum, and borrage family, is a kind of coiled raceme, unrolling as it blossoms. It is un- derstood to be a half-developed cyme, as illustrated in the cut. 359. Tub peculiar evolution- op the cyme is well illustrated in the chick-weed (Alsine media). The first opening flower terminates the axis and stops its growth. Then from the pair of axils next below issuo two opposite branches, each bearing a pair of leaves and a terminal flower. Next, the same process is repeated with each of theso two branches, and so on indefinitely. Thus the stem becomes repeatedly forked, each fork having an older flower in its angle. 360. Evolution op the scokpoid ra- ceme. But let only one brjinch be developed at the node next below the flower, and that always on the same side, and we have a scorpoid raceme or cyme. Other irregulari- ties occasioned by partial development may also variously disguise the cyme. 361. Fascicle.
