“LIANA” in italiano

sostantivo

liana

liana

A liana climbs its host tree, called a trellis, by laying down a network of tendrils, spikes, and hooks.

It is interesting to note that some tropical lianes also grow and flower as shrubs in similar circumstances.

Only 5% of the woods were identified as lianas , whereas 43% of the fruits and seeds have been.

Some of the leaves documented in this selection were from lianas grown in this way.

However, the sapwood of these Actinidia species, as with other lianas , is highly porous with large diameter vessels.
