4 | flower spike with remote lower whorles |

alján szaggatott füzér flower spike with remote lower whorles Explanation: Nem vagyok szakértő a botanikában, így csak azzal próbálok segíteni, amit találtam. Szerintem angolul nehéz olyan jó tömör kifejezést találni, mint a magyar. A Treasury of botany c. könyvben a következő vonatkozó szöveget találtam (a szerintem ide vonatkozó részt kiemeltem): "The Wild Thyme T. Serphyllum, is comon thorughout Temperate Europe and Asia, and Northern Africa. It has procumbent stems, with numerous short ascending branches, ending in short loose leafy whorled flower-spikes; the leaves being egg-shaped and narrow, and more or less fringed towards the bottom, those of the flower-spikes being similar but smaller. There are two forms - T. eu-Serphyllum, with flowering branches ascending from shoots, which are barren at the tip, whorls in one head, and the upper lip of the corolla oblong; and T. Chamaedrys, in which all the branches ascend from the crown of the rootstock, with whorls in many axillary heads and a short and broad upper lip at the corolla. The Common or Garden Thyme, T. vulgaris, grows more erect that the Wild Thyme, is clothed with hoary down, and has the edges of its leaves turned in; its flower-whorls are in loose terminal heads, or some of the lower ones are remote from the others; the leaves of the whorls are blunt, while the ordinary ones are sharp-pointed." http://books.google.com/books?id=QNVLAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA1149&lpg=... Az Odorographia c. könyvben ugyanez a szöveg megtalálható. "A general system of gardening and botany" c. könyvben az ilyen típusú virágzatot a következő kifejezésekkel írják le (nem feltétlenül a kakukkfűre vonatkozóan): "Whorls loose: lower ones remote" "whorls all remote" (gondolom ez a végig szaggatott) "lower whorls remote, upper ones spicate" http://books.google.com/books?id=E8lAAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA774&lpg=P...
