Nodes are points of attachment for leaves, aerial roots, and flowers. The stem region between two nodes is called an internode. The stalk that extends from the stem to the base of the leaf is the petiole. An axillary bud is usually found in the axil—the area between the base of a leaf and the stem—where it can give rise to a branch or a flower.

Dicots, exemplified by the basswood tree, have three main stem areas: bark for protection, cortex for food storage, and cambium for producing new xylem and phloem. Xylem supports the plant and transports water and minerals.

How might this impact the ability of the outer environment to interact with the interior of the plant? Variations on this type of growth appear in a few places, but the evolution of gymnosperms (conifers and their relatives) is when the more typical secondary growth appears in evolutionary history.
