A micrograph of the surface of a leaf from Pelargonium. Coloured in light yellow are the tiny hairs, which release the typical scent, when broken.

Botany in Detail

The microscope uncovers details of Plant Leafes, Blossoms, Roots and its Cells.

SEM image of Fennel

A micrograph of some leafs of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare)

Fennel leaves with tiny stomata (brown spots) all over. Scanning Electron Microscope, 50:1 (when 15cms wide)

Fern seen with an Electron Microscope

A closer look with the Scanning electron microscope shows the spore capsules on a fern leaf.

Open sorus of the male fern (Dryopteris filix-mas). The spore capsules that contain dozens of spores, are shown whitish here. Scanning Electron Microscope, 80:1 (when 15cms wide)
