Foci of misshapen and overly expanded cells in the epidermis of warty1 mutant leaves are shown to originate as sporadic single cells in which new cell walls are incomplete or misoriented. Interestingly, surrounding cells appear to compensate for the abnormal behavior of their neighbors by dividing more quickly and/or expanding less.
