Abstract

The article presents information about some laboratory plants that may be useful for biology teachers. These plants are available in commercial greenhouses, dealers or public conservatories. The fern Nephrolepis exaltata is found in Davenport. This plant appears to be in an active state of mutation. At least eight sub-varieties of the plant have been described of drooping, spreading and variously modified kinds. Therefore, the plant furnishes excellent demonstration material for the study of variation. The leaves of the screw pine Pandanus Veitchii are broad and are two or three feet long. They are stiff and spiny margined and is excellent for the study of stomata and other epidermal structures. The rubber plant Ficus elastica can be used for demonstrating epidermal cells, cystoliths, aerial roots, ochreae and in propagation experiments.
