Spiral Phyllotaxis

Spiral Phyllotaxis is a type of phyllotactic arrangement in which leaves or plant organs are sequentially attached to the stem in a spiral pattern, distinguished by their divergence angle—typically approximating the golden angle of approximately 137.5°—and their emergence at regular intervals along a helical trajectory, optimizing spatial packing and light exposure.
