Oil glands on a leaf, SEM
Oil glands. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a leaf from a crested latesummer mint plant (Elsholtzia ciliata). The circular light green structures are oil glands, modified glandular hairs which secrete oils to give the plant its aroma. The smaller protrusions enclosing slits are stomata. They are pores in the leafs epidermis through which gases and water vapour pass

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of oil glands on a leaf, captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The leaf belongs to a crested latesummer mint plant, scientifically known as Elsholtzia ciliata. Each circular structure in light green represents an oil gland, which is essentially a modified glandular hair responsible for secreting oils that give the plant its delightful aroma. Accompanying these oil glands are smaller protrusions enclosing slits called stomata. These stomata serve as pores within the leaf's epidermis, facilitating the exchange of gases and water vapor essential for the plant's survival. The vibrant false coloring adds depth and allure to this botanical masterpiece. This image not only highlights nature's remarkable intricacy but also provides valuable insights into botany and biology. It serves as a testament to the wonders hidden within even the tiniest components of our natural world. Captured by Science Photo Library using advanced imaging techniques, this photograph invites us to appreciate both the visual splendor and scientific significance found within plants' secretions and structures. Whether you have an interest in botany or simply admire nature's artistry, this print is sure to captivate your senses with its mesmerizing colors and intricate details.
