The Stamens.—Hogg adopts the varjing positions of the sta-mens in the tube as the primary divisions of his system, having foundby experience that they are on the whole the most reliable characterswhere all are more or less changeable. The stamens are (1) marginal,when near the inner end of the tube; (2) median, when near the 22 SYSTEMATIC POMOLOGY middle; (3) marginal, ^henneox the outer end. A sharp knife andcareful cutting is necessary to determine this accurately. Some va-rieties have too short a calyx-tube to make three divisions safe, butin general it is a very useful point.
