The study analyses a method for practical assessment of cylindrically represented spiral phyllotaxis. In a phyllotaxis model represented by the conspicuous parastichy pair and the linear distances among the three closest situated primordia, the following traits can be determined: generative spiral direction, rise, angle of intersection of the opposite parastiches in the conspicuous parastichy pair, bud radius, linear and angular divergences. The results of application of the method for
