In the tuber the axis is excessively developed whUe the scales are reduced to mere linear points. Tn tlie corm the analogy is far more 65 evident, for the axis is less excessive and the scales more 66 manifest, and lastly in the oulb tho analogy is complete, or overdone, the scales often becoming excessive. â â¦â¢ ⦠>» CHAPTER VI. THE LEAB-BUD. 195. It is but a step from the study of the bulb to that of the leaf-bud. Buds are of two kinds in respect to their contents; the leaf-bud containing the rudiments of a leafy stem or branch, the/owr- bud containing the same elements transformed into the nascent organs of a flower for the purpose of reproduction. 196. The leaf-bud consists of a brief, cone- shaped axis with a tender growing point, bearing a protectmg covering of imbricated scales and incip- lent leaves. ^ 65. Branch of pear tree.
