Fig.
11.1-3. Transverse section of sorrel (Rumex crispus). This
stem has the expected four regions, but is somewhat
unusual in having a relatively thin cortex and a broad pith. The
surface of the stem has many ridges, partially due to having columns of
collenchyma at each ridge as well has having particularly large vascular bundles
at each ridge.
