Title: picture of a monocot or dicot? Post by: datboililp on Apr 21, 2012 Can you tell is this flower dicot or monocot?

The easiest way to figure it out is by looking at the leaf veins. Reticulated = dicot, Parallel = monocot. Title: picture of a monocot or dicot? Post by: kahnsg on Apr 21, 2012 It is a dicot. We have two clues: 1. Monocot leaves normally have strap-shaped leaves with parallel veins. 2. The flowers of dicots usually consist of 6 separate petals (occasionally 3). Yours appears to have five fused petals.
I'm pretty certain it is a member of the Convolvulaceae. Title: picture of a monocot or dicot? Post by: Rj55 on Apr 22, 2012 IT IS FIELD BINDWEED PLANT
