Hence it would appear that the Chap. II. LEAF-CUMBERS. 81 cMef use of the coiling, at least whilst the plant is young, is to support the pitcher with its load of secreted fluid. Summary on Leaf-climhers. — Plants belonging to eight families are known to have clasping petioles, and plants belonging to four families climb by the tips of their leaves. In all the species observed by. me, with one exception, the young internodes revolve more or less regularly, in some cases as regularly as those of ...a twining plant. They revolve at various rates, • in most cases rather rapidly. Some few can ascend by spirally twining round a support. Differently from most twiners, there is a strong tendency in the same shoot to revolve first in one and then in an opposite direction. The object gained by the revolving move- ment is to bring the petioles or the tips of the leaves into contact with surrounding objects ; and without this aid the plant would be much less successful in climb- ing. With rare exceptions, the petioles are sensitive only whilst young.
