A scoRPOiD CYME, as seen in the sundew, Sedum, and borrage lamily, 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 PEcnLiAE etolutioh of the CTME is wsll 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 issue two opposite branches, each bearing a pair of leaves and a terminal flower. Next, the same process is repeated with each of these 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 sooiiporo ra- ceme. But let only one branch 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. This is a modifi- cation of the cyme, with crowded and nearly sessile flowers, as in sweet-william (Dianthus). 362.
