There are usually a large number of bundles from each leaf which enter the stem separately, and take a radially oblique course ; in some large plants the number reaches several hundred. The leaf basis extends entirely around the stem circumference, and from this basis each bundle continuing downward enters the stem bending strongly toward the centre,.
