English term

accumbent cotyledons

English to German Science Botany
This is another problem I have with the text about fruits and seeds of maples:

The way the cotyledons are folded is classified as either incumbent or accumbent. Incumbent cotyledons are usually found in convex locules, while accumbent cotyledons usually appear in concave or flat locules.

What does incumbent and accumbent cotyledons mean in German?

Thank you very much!
