A 8CORPOID 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. The peculiar evolution of the CYME is well illustrated in tho chick-weed (Alsine media). The first opening flower terminates the axis and stops its growth. Then from the pair of axils next below issue iwo opposite branches, each bearing a paic Oif leayea apd a terminal flower. Next, tho same process is repeated with each of theao two branches, and so on indefinitely. Thus the stem becomes repeatedly forked, eacli fork having an older flower in its angle. 360. Evolution of the scoRPoro ka- CBME. But let only one branch be developed at the node next below tho 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. This is a modifi- cation of the cyme, with crowded and nearly sessile flowers, as in sweet-william (Dianthus). • 362.
