Stolon: Sometimes confused with runner, this horizontally growing stem roots at its tip, not its nodes.
Subsoil: The usually less fertile soil below the topsoil.

Stolon-An aboveground stem that reclines or becomes prostrate and may form roots where nodes come into contact with the ground.
Storage root-A root modified to store large amounts of water, carbohydrates, or starch. Example: Carrot.
Stolon - Modified stems that grow along the top of the soil, occasionally taking root and forming a new plant. Strawberry is an example.
Stoma - Located in the epidermis of plants stoma allow gas exchange between the plant and the environment.
stolon. A trailing aboveground stem or shoot, often rooting at the nodes and forming new plants.
Stolon A slender horizontal stem which produces new plants; a horizontal stem that roots at its tip and grows a new plant.
Stoloniferous Producing stolons.
stolon A horizontal stem running along, but above, the soil surface and producing roots and leaves where its nodes contact the soil. Strawberries are an example of a plant that produces stolons. Also called a runner.
Stolons and runners
A stolon is a horizontal, often fleshy stem that can root, then produce new shoots where it touches the medium.
STOLON - A thin, underground runner. See runner.
STOPPING - See pinching out.
STOVE PLANT - A plant which requires warm greenhouse conditions in winter.

Single type of grass: Warm-season grasses are commonly sold as a single type of grass due to the "creeping" stolons and rhizomes that tend to spread quickly and overtake over grasses.
The causal fungus of spring dead spot attacks the roots, crowns, stolons, and rhizomes of susceptible bermudagrasses in the fall of the year and again in spring, even though symptoms of infection cannot be seen from above.

* Select seed, sprigs/stolons or sod that are suited to the area and its use.
Bermudagrass should not be treated with these materials until stolons (runners) begin to appear. MSMA should not be used on centipedegrass. Vantage (sethoxydim) may be used for annual grass control in centipedegrass.

'The fan-shaped ones include the Leafy Sundew (Drosera stolonifera). Drosera ramellosa (Branched Sundew) is a compact short form.' Neville points out that these go well in terrariums.
Most varieties of strawberries produce runners, also known as stolons. These runners will eventually develop their own roots, resulting in a clone plant.
stolonifera varieties), Kerria japonica, Rhus typhina and a number of trees, produce suckers from the base of the plant or along the roots. These can be removed and planted up in pots or a nursery bed as new plants.
Potatoes grow at the ends of stolons that the plant puts out wherever the stems are covered with mulch. So in time your plant will have tubers in several sizes within the mound.

- Perennial cornflower spreads very quickly by means of underground stolons to cover any good, unplanted soil. To control it in a garden bed, dig up and divide the plants every two years.
Other bromeliads form colonies by producing new plants on stolons (long shoots that grow along the soil surface), which branch from the mother plant. These can either be left on to produce a cluster of plants or taken off and planted.
kaufmanniana are ideal candidates for naturalizing, as they spread rapidly by seed, stolons, and bulblets. These wildflowers of the tulip family are less vulnerable to stormy spring weather, and their generally short stems don't bend in strong winds.
Now is the best time of the year to plant Zoysia grass, a tough and beautiful grass grown from stolons or plugs. The grass is drought-tolerant, chokes out weeds on its own, and is bothered by few pests.
aggressive - Spreads by stoloniferous stems and self-seeding.
non-invasive
not native to North America - Native to Europe, Asia.
Growing Information ...
Tuber: Thickened or swollen underground branch or stolon (stem) with numerous buds or eyes; thickening occurs because of the accumulation of reserved food, as in potatoes.
Often found in coastal areas, Zoysia is a sod-forming perennial that contains both stolons (also called runners) and rhizomes, the horizontal stem of a plant that sends out shoots or roots underground.
Some weeds, such as bermuda grass, which grows from spreading its stolons (runners), should be trashed. It doesn't take much for bermuda to grow again. The same goes for nut grass, which spreads underground and must be dug out to be eradicated.
A runner is a slender stem - sent out from the bases of certain perennials - at the end of which an offset develops. In common usage, however, the term "runner" has come to refer to either offsets or stolons.
Soil pH ...
Roots coming from bulbs, corms, rhizomes, or tubers are adventitious roots, as are roots developed from aerial stems (stolons and runners) and cuttings from stems or leaves. Rhizophora mangle (red mangrove), Pandanus spp. (screw-pine), and Ficus spp.
