Fig. 52. 



There are many kinds of 

 nutritive modified leaves : 

 some are hard and needle- 

 shaped, as the spines of 

 the Megi (Fig. 40) and 

 Hebinoboradzu (Berberis 

 vulgaris) ; some are 

 thread-like and capable of 

 coiling spirally, as the 

 climbing organs of the 

 Yendo and Shiode (Fig. 52); 

 some are small and scaly, 

 as the subterranean leaves 

 of the Oniyuri (Fig. 12)
