Here is a time lapse I made to show hypogeal germination.

The pea germinating underground and growing was filmed over a period of about 6 weeks.

I’ve made a British interactive plant finder and pruning guide CD-ROM. The software is designed to help you find the right plants for the right place and easy to use.  PC & MAC compatible

For further information please see my web site www.complete-gardens.co.uk

I have also made an on-line version interactive plant finder, identifier and pruning guide web site.  www.rightplants4me.co.uk which I hope you find interesting.

It has over 3,700 garden plants, 10,000 photographs plus time lapse sequences and each plant has in-depth plant care and illustrated pruning advice.

The plant database is continuing to grow.  If you have good quality photographs of garden plants that are not not already on the database I’d like to hear from you with an interest of adding it to the collection.

Hypogeal
‘Hypogeal’ means ‘underground’.

salts in the soil.

Roots and root hairs
The main functions of root are:
Absorption of water and nutrients,
Fixation of the plant to the soil,
Root bears unicellular root hairs.

Conduction of water and nutrients to aerial parts of plants

Root cap.

It is a cap-like structure at the tip of root. It cover and protects the growing point from injury as it pushes through the soil.
