THE SECRET LIFE OF HERBS



"Sessile secretory gland on lower leaf surface of oregano (Origanum vulgare L., Lamiaceae) with ruptured cuticle revealing individual secretory cells. Nearby stomata are also clearly visible (SEM, CPD magnified 1,979 times actual size)."

One of a series of high magnification shots of herbs on display at herbalgram of the American Botanical Council, an excellent source of herbal information on herbs and herbal medicine.

With thanks to asimplerway, an excellent blog on herbs and herbal medicine.
