During reproducton, the root of the radicle grows out to attach to the plant. Followed shortly after, a short stem above the root grows. The hypocotyl then carries the cotyledons above the ground and they become the first sprouted green leaves on the plant. Then the stem, leaves, and branches are formed, while the development of the radicle forms the root-system. The growth rate and size of the adult plant varies. It can range from staying small and lasting only one season, to a forest tree that would easily live for centuries.
