Of RAMIFICATION, 
AMIFICATION is the Manner in 
which a Tree produces its Branches, 
with the Situation of which that of the 
Leaves is alfo connected *. 
Some Plants have no Branches, though 
they have Leaves which are placed on the 
Stem. This is the Cafe with Dzé&amnus, 
Paonia, Epimedium, and Podophyllum. 
* The Do@trines delivered here under the Head of 
Ramification do not an{wer to the Title, the greater Part 
refpecting rather the Situation of the Leaves than that of 
the Branches: They might, with more Propriety, have 
been collected under a Head of -Foliation ; but as the 
Term Foliation is uled to exprefs the Habit of Plants, in 
refpect to the Pofition of Leaves in the Bud before they 
difclofe themfelves, as will be fhewmin Chanter 16, thefe 
Dotrines could not have ftood under the fame Head, 
without a Confufion in the Ufe of the Term ; and this 
feems to be the Reafon why Linngzus, whom we follow, 
has given them in this Place.
