Longitudinal section of a small candytuft stem (stem was ~3mm's diameter) to show the xylem. Candytuft is Iberis sempervirens, a small flowering plant.

Nice 3D effect
Looked up Iberis sempervirens, typed xylem next to it on a whim and came up with a xylem database! Who knew?
This could get addictive.

It's your fault asking for xylem images. I have some others but tried for something new. Since stem is so small xylem is also small.
Now it is your turn

Not sure of this ID, possibly Emilia sp. Flower is pink, stem is quite woody.
