A runner grows along the surface of the soil.
Those long slender stems are called runners or stolons. They are horizontal above-ground stems that produce new plants at nodes along their length. They help plants propagate vegetatively and spread across the ground.
Potatoes grow from storage stems called tubers. Tubers are swollen, underground plant stems that store nutrients for the plant to grow.
Decumbent stems are plant stems that initially grow upright but then curve downward and trail along the ground. They typically root at the nodes where they come in contact with the soil, allowing the plant to spread horizontally. Decumbent stems are often seen in trailing or creeping plants.
The alamanda plant typically has woody stems, not soft stems. These woody stems provide support for the plant as it grows and helps it withstand environmental conditions.
A ground-hugging stem is a type of stem that grows close to the ground or trails along the surface. It allows plants to spread out horizontally rather than grow vertically, helping them to creep or spread across the ground. These types of stems are often found in plants like strawberries or certain types of vines.
The pumpkin plant grows thin hairs along the stems. These prevent some insects from getting into the stems and can be annoying to small birds and animals.

Cacti do not have leaves. However, some species can be propagated by cuttings from the stems.
Yes, lily pads have stems that connect them to the water's surface. These stems are called petioles and help support the lily pads as they float on the water.
Yes, climbing ferns typically have weak, twining stems that require support to climb. These stems are adapted to wrap around tree trunks or other structures for stability as the fern grows upward.
Goldenrod can be identified in the wild by its tall, slender stems with clusters of bright yellow flowers at the top. The leaves are usually long and narrow, and the plant typically grows in fields, meadows, and along roadsides.
a plant with fibrous inner stems used to make paper
The Crimson Hedgehog Cactus stems are closely packed together, it can keep warm in very cold weather and this also reduces surface area through which it can lose heat. It plant grows in deserts. It has spines. It grows in clumps. The clumps have a few to a hundred stems. The stems of this cactus are shorter and more tightly packed together than other hedgehog cacti. They use the cool night temperatures to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide. During the day they do their photosynthesis, but they keep their stomata closed so they won't lose any moisture.
