3. The Stamens. 6. The Seed.
7. The Receptacle.
Many flowers are deficient in some of their parts, but the stamens and pistils are essential and to be found in all, either in flowers on the same plant, or in different individuals of the same species on separate plants.
The calyx, cup or empalement is the outer part of the flower, formed of one or more greenish leaves, sustaining the corolla at the bottom, and enclosing it entirely
...before it expands, as you may remark in the Rose and Geranium.
The Calyx is either— A cup, as in the Polyanthus. A sheath, as in the Daffodil.
A fence, as in the Carrot. A husk, as in Oats, Wheat or Grasses.
A catkin, as in the Willow. A veil, as in Mosses.
A curtain, as in Mushrooms.
The blossom, petals, or corolla, is that beautifully colored part of a flower which first attracts the attention, and is regarded by common ob- servers as the flower itself ; it serves as a protection to the important parts of fructiflcation, the stamens and pistils, and falls oft" when they attain maturity.
