In the indeterminate or axillary anthotaxy, either flowers are pro- duced from base to apex, those blossoming first which are lowest down on the rachis or from margin to centre. The principal forms of this type are: A solitary indeterminate is one in which the flowers occur singly in the axils of the leaves. Raceme, or simple flower-cluster in which the flowers on pedicels of nearly equal length are arranged along an axis.
