Abstract
Peculiarities of apical and axillary meristems structure in Norfolk Island pine growing in greenhouse conditions has been described. Meristematic cells are absent in the leaf axils till remotion of apical domination by the stem decapitation. Peculiarities of development of axillary meristems have been illustrated.
