Plant \Plant\, n. [AS. plante, L. planta.]
   1. A vegetable; an organized living being, generally without
      feeling and voluntary motion, and having, when complete, a
      root, stem, and leaves, though consisting sometimes only
      of a single leafy expansion, or a series of cellules, or
      even a single cellule.

   Note: Plants are divided by their structure and methods of
         reproduction into two series, ph[ae]nogamous or
         flowering plants, which have true flowers and seeds,
         and cryptogamous or flowerless plants, which have no
         flowers, and reproduce by minute one-celled spores. In
         both series are minute and simple forms and others of
         great size and complexity. As to their mode of
         nutrition, plants may be considered as self-supporting
         and dependent. Self-supporting plants always contain
         chlorophyll, and subsist on air and moisture and the
         matter dissolved in moisture, and as a general rule
         they excrete oxygen, and use the carbonic acid to
         combine with water and form the material for their
         tissues. Dependent plants comprise all fungi and many
         flowering plants of a parasitic or saprophytic nature.
         As a rule, they have no chlorophyll, and subsist mainly
         or wholly on matter already organized, thus utilizing
         carbon compounds already existing, and not excreting
         oxygen. But there are plants which are partly dependent
         and partly self-supporting. The movements of climbing
         plants, of some insectivorous plants, of leaves,
         stamens, or pistils in certain plants, and the ciliary
         motion of zo["o]spores, etc., may be considered a kind
         of voluntary motion.

   2. A bush, or young tree; a sapling; hence, a stick or staff.
      ``A plant of stubborn oak.'' --Dryden.

   3. The sole of the foot. [R.] ``Knotty legs and plants of
      clay.'' --B. Jonson.

   4. (Com.) The whole machinery and apparatus employed in
      carrying on a trade or mechanical business; also,
      sometimes including real estate, and whatever represents
      investment of capital in the means of carrying on a
      business, but not including material worked upon or
      finished products; as, the plant of a foundry, a mill, or
      a railroad.

   5. A plan; an artifice; a swindle; a trick. [Slang]

            It was n't a bad plant, that of mine, on Fikey.
                                                  --Dickens.

   6. (Zo["o]l.)
      (a) An oyster which has been bedded, in distinction from
          one of natural growth.
      (b) A young oyster suitable for transplanting. [Local,
          U.S.]

Plant \Plant\, v. i.
   To perform the act of planting.

         I have planted; Apollos watered.         --1 Cor. iii.
                                                  6.
