The word "twiners" in example sentences

Members of the genus range in growth habit from shrubs to large, spreading trees, although many species are rootclimbers, twiners and epiphytes. ❋ Unknown (1994)

-- These rapid twiners thrive in any loamy soil, and may be increased by putting down layers in the autumn, after the leaves begin to fall. ❋ Alfred Pink (N/A)

We recall the slender fronds climbing over the low bushes, unique twiners, charming, indeed, in their native habitat. ❋ George Henry Tilton (N/A)

He who will read my memoir on these plants will, I think, admit that all the many gradations in function and structure between simple twiners and tendril-bearers are in each case beneficial in a high degree to the species. ❋ Unknown (1909)

I have already endeavoured to explain how plants became twiners, namely, by the increase of a tendency to slight and irregular revolving movements, which were at first of no use to them; this movement, as well as that due to a touch or shake, being the incidental result of the power of moving, gained for other and beneficial purposes. ❋ Unknown (1909)

But in ascending the series from simple twiners to leaf-climbers, an important quality is added, namely sensitiveness to a touch, by which means the foot-stalks of the leaves or flowers, or these modified and converted into tendrils, are excited to bend round and clasp the touching object. ❋ Unknown (1909)

It is, however, probable, from reasons which I have assigned in my memoir, that this will have occurred only with plants which had already acquired the power of revolving, and had thus become twiners. ❋ Unknown (1909)

As in many widely separated families of plants, single species and single genera possess the power of revolving, and have thus become twiners, they must have independently acquired it, and cannot have inherited it from a common progenitor. ❋ Unknown (1909)

Two recommendable woody twiners of recent distribution are the actinidia and the akebia, both from Japan. ❋ Unknown (1906)

We passed very many sites of old villages, which are easily known by the tree euphorbia planted round an umbelliferous one, and the sacred fig. One species here throws out strong buttresses in the manner of some mangroves instead of sending down twiners which take root, as is usually the ease with the tropical fig. These, with millstones -- stones for holding the pots in cooking -- and upraised clay benches, which have been turned into brick by fire in the destruction of the huts, show what were once the "pleasant haunts of men." ❋ David Livingstone (1843)

im a twiner, im [sharing] the same hair [colour], [parents], girlfriend as you ❋ Richard Butterworth (2008)
