Fun Facts! Unlike dicots, monocot stems grow from the inside. Dicots have a cambium, which is the layer of growing cells near the outside of the stem. Monocots rarely have a cambium . Monocots are thought to have appeared about 90 million years ago, developing from water lily like dicots that lived in swamps.
