In fig. 338, the stamens, e, and the petals, p, are below the pistil or ovary, o, and both are separate from it and from the calyx, c, and are therefore hypogynous. When the stamens are inserted on the calyx, that is, are united to it to a greater or less height above the base of the pistil, then they become lateral as it were in regard to the latter, and are perigynous {â Tregi, around). This is shown in the ilower of the almond (fig. 339), in which the petals, p, and the stamens, e, are united to the calyx, c, while the pistil is Fig. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Balfour, John Hutton, 1808-1884.
