👉 Apidea is a type of plant characterized by its lack of true leaves, which are replaced with leaf-like structures or spines. These spines grow from the lower part of the stem and can be as long as several inches long. In addition to their lack of leaves, apidea plants also have a unique, narrow stem that is often covered in thorns or other prickly features. They are commonly found in tropical regions but can also thrive in cooler climates.
