Orchids typically exhibit a parallel venation pattern in their leaves. This means that the veins run parallel to each other, extending along the length of the leaf without branching out significantly. This type of venation is common in monocotyledonous plants, such as grasses and lilies, to which orchids belong. The parallel structure helps support the leaf and facilitates efficient water and nutrient transport.

simple/ Basil leaf being a dicot has Reticulate venation
The leaf of colocasia has a venation pattern known as pinnate venation, where the primary vein extends along the center of the leaf with smaller veins branching off it. This type of venation is common among monocotyledonous plants like colocasia.
Mint plants typically have a pinnate venation pattern, where the veins branch out from the midrib in a feather-like arrangement.
Leaf venation refers to the pattern of veins in a leaf. There are two main types of leaf venation: parallel venation, where the veins run alongside each other in a parallel pattern, and reticulate venation, where the veins branch and form a network-like pattern across the leaf. The type of venation can be used as a characteristic for identifying plant species.

Pine leaves have parallel venation, where the veins of the leaf run parallel to each other from the base to the tip of the leaf. This venation helps in the efficient transport of water and nutrients throughout the leaf.
