So next time you have your peas or corn remember that the former is a dicot while the latter is a monocot. Summary: 1.Monocots are single seeds while dicots seeds can be split into two halves. 2. The flowers of monocots have petals in multiples of three while dicot flowers have in multiples of 4 or 5.
Palms, Orchids, and most bulbous plants are monocots. A dicot has two cotyledons (dicot is short for 'dicotyledon', and 'di' means two). The seed leaves are usually rounded and fat, because they are the two halves of the seed. The first true leaves can be many different shapes, from long and thin to rounded or palmate.
