notwithstanding the difference in their appearance, they are really accessory leaves; first, because occasionally they are tiffany rings transformed into leaves, as in Rosa bracteata, in which I have seen them converted into pinnated leaves ; secondly, because they are often undistinguishable from leaves, of which they obviously perform all the functions, as tiffany in the Lathyrus, Lotus, and many other Leguminosde; and, finally, because there are cases in which tiffany co buds develope in their axils, as in Salix, a property peculiar to leaves and their modifications." 121.
The Bracts or Bractea, the next part to be considered, are those (usually) leaflike appendage^ which are situated between the properleaves and the flowering bud of a plant. They are very generally smaller than the leaves, and tiffany outlet also differ from them in their outline, colour, &c. In some plants they are so like to the segments of the calyx, that it is not easy to distinguish between the two. This resemblance is very great in the Camelia. In umbelliferous and compound plants, the bracts and bractlets obtain the names of involucra palms, and the glumes of grasses.
