plants with weak stems develop tendrils, which provide support for the plant to grow.

in Lathyrus, the leaf is converted into a tendril, while in Gloriosa superba, the leaf apex is modifies into a tendril.

other examples of plants in which tendrils are formed are Vitis vinifera, Cissus quadrangularis, Passiflora etc.

In Cissus and Vitis, the apical buds are modified into tendrils while in Passiflora, the axillary bud is modified into a tendril :)
