| dicotyledon |
One of the two groups of angiosperms, the other being the monocotyledons. Dicots (as they are affectionately known for short) are characterized by the presence of only two seed leaves when they first sprout (di = two, cotyledon = seed leaf). Dicots usually have flower parts in fours and fives, and leaves are usually net-veined rather than having parallel veins.
